Its multimedia Friday again. Today I thought I would post a couple of videos to help people explain cancer to kids. I know my kids have had questions about cancer and I think my wife and I have done a fair job of explaining things to them. But I also think using videos such as the ones below can be helpful to supplement talks with kids.
I think this first video is great to explain to kids how some things might change when a family member has cancer.
This next video has some tips for parents about how to talk about cancer with children. The narrator of the video focuses on a couple of different age ranges.
Finally this last video is an animated video to possibly help younger children understand cancer in a visual way.
Bonus Video
This weeks music video is from the Danish Band D-A-D. The lyrics from this song hit home for my cancer diagnosis. Especially the line “I got run over by truth one day”.
