10 Tips to Prepare
Young Children for a Move
"Allowing your child to
decide what to do with his/her worn toys provides them
a feeling of control in a situation that is largely, out of their
control."
Over the years,
many studies have
been conducted to define and rank
which typical life experiences
cause the greatest amount of stress for the
average adult. For anyone who has had to
make a move, it probably comes as no
surprise that moving ranks within the
top 10 of the most stressful events… and
once you add children to the equation,
the stress level only increases.We have compiled the following tips to help
parents prepare their young children for a
move, and to also help them adjust to their
new home and community once the move
has taken place.
1. Tell your children about the
upcoming move as soon as
possible.
Waiting until the For Sale
sign appears on your lawn, or having your
kids find out about the move from neighbors,
will only leave them feeling left out
and most likely, angry.
2. Discuss with your children, in
an age-appropriate manner,
some of the pros and cons of
moving.
Most children get great comfort
from simply being heard, and by being
assured that their parents are committed to
helping them adjust to a new environment.
3. Encourage your children to
help you investigate your new
community.
Most cities or towns
have their own website, which they use to
advertise and promote life in their community.
In addition to finding information
on the area lifestyle, you should also find
a list of the local amenities, such as
schools, places of worship, recreation centres,
community sports associations, and
parks. Most community sites will also
include locations of the nearest shopping
malls, movie theatres, and special attractions
such as water parks, horse stables,
and public beaches.
4. When packing, resist the urge
to throw out all of your children’s
old, unused toys.
Instead, ask your children to help you prepare
for packing by separating their toys
into three piles. Pile 1 comes with them
to the new house. Pile 2 is for donating to
a local shelter or community centre, and
pile 3 is only for those toys that they
understand are beyond repair, and for safety
sake, should be thrown away. Allowing
your child to decide what to do with
his/her worn toys provides them a feeling
of control in a situation that is largely, out
of their control.
5. Pack any young children’s
belongings last; allowing
them prolonged access to their familiar possessions reduces
their anxiety.
Ask your children to help
you pack some of their belongings into
boxes; and be sure to explain that the boxes,
and every item that goes into the box, is
going to be unpacked at the new house.
Assemble some fun packing materials; a
variety of brightly coloured (washable)
markers for writing their name on each of
their own boxes, bubble wrap for swaddling
their dolls and soft toys, and a selection of
stickers to decorate, and easily identify what
is in each of their boxes.
6. Take your children to visit the
new home at least once prior
moving day, and be sure to
keep the visit short, and upbeat.
7. Ask your child if he/she would
like to have a moving party.
Invite his/her friends over to enjoy a
night of pizza and movies. Take pictures of
each guest posing with your child using an
instant or digital camera. Keep one copy for
your child, and give one copy to each guest
to take with them.
8. Most kids make new friends at
school fairly easily, but if your
moving date is scheduled after
the end of the school year, your child
could be facing a long, lonely summer
break.
To keep your child from feeling isolated you will have to take
steps to help
him/her meet some new friends. Soon
after moving into your new home, ask your
neighbors if there are children of the same
age close by. Ask those neighbors who
have young children if they are interested
in allowing your children to play together
at the local park during supervised play
dates.
9. Once the move has taken
place, organize a "family
exploring day".
Let your children
help you plan an afternoon walk, or scenic
drive through a specific part of your new
town. By doing this, you will not only be
helping your children to familiarize themselves
with their new community, but your
family will also be creating fun, new memories
associated with your new home.
10. Involve your children in
deciding how to decorate
their new bedrooms.
Even
the youngest child should have some of
their ideas incorporated into the new
design. Whether it’s a big decision (choosing
the wall color), or a small decision
(selecting just the right spot for his/her toy
box), giving your child “a say” helps them
to embrace their new space.
Above all, keep the communication
lines open - before, during, and after
the move. Depending on the child, it
can take anywhere from a few days to
many months to adjust to their new
surroundings.

They were helpful, knowledgeable, caring, and understanding of our needs.
First of all let me say that these guys know their stuff! They were helpful, knowledgeable, caring, and understanding of our needs. As a second time home buyer they made us feel safe and could ask them anything and were a text/phone call away for any questions we had. This was by far the best buying experience we had and would recommend them to anyone buying or selling a home, professionalism is not a trait a lot of companies have and these guys are the best thanks for the experience and the knowledge you shared with us we will neve forget it.
