Description:

Have you found that your child is jealous or resentful of the new family structure?

If you answered yes to either of these questions, then Twice the Love can help you and your child!

Sometimes, children find themselves in blended families. Whether a child’s divorced parent is remarrying or the child is moving into a house with another group of people, this can be a stressful and confusing time filled with many conflicting emotions. Twice the Love is an activity book for parents to help support children who are adjusting to a new blended family.

Using Twice the Love, parents can guide their children (ages 8 to 12) through the changes that are brought about when new families are formed.

With

engaging drawings to capture children’s interest
activities designed to help them understand that their feelings are normal and that accepting the new family structure is not betraying the former family structure
exercises to help them learn more about their new family and find things in common
visual journaling and art therapy that help children view their new family structure in a positive light, while acknowledging the memories, good and bad, of how their family used to be

By spending just ten minutes a day engaged with the more than thirty activities in this book, your child will learn to visualize their new family structure in a helpful way and find ways to accept the changes while building their self-esteem.

What parents are saying...

When my husband and I divorced our son who is ten stayed pretty quiet and didn’t talk much about how he was feeling. When my husband remarried a year later our son began throwing tantrums and yelling at his new stepmother. His teacher recommended Twice the Love and my son and I use it as a special time each night to talk about his new family. It gives me the chance to show him that I am also working through the changes and that we can do it together.

I dated my boyfriend for four years after my divorce before we got married. My daughter, who is now eight, did not have trouble adjusting since she really doesn’t remember when her dad lived with us. But we just had a new baby, and my daughter is very jealous. I don’t think she would harm the baby, but she seems to want to pretend the baby isn’t there. My husband is a middle school counselor and he got a copy of Twice the Love. We’ve been working in it together for two months now, and my daughter has started letting the new baby be part of her life. I am so relived. Thank you.

My ten-year-old child has been very sad since I got remarried. He recently told me he had been hoping his dad and I would get back together but now he knew we wouldn’t. We started talking about it more and working in this book together. It’s been a wonderful journey for me and him together.

Get started today and help your child navigate the challenges of a blended family!
