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 helps children understand that their feelings are normal and that accepting the new family structure is not betraying the former family structure. Exercises include therapeutic art and writing activities to 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.Twice the Love is written by school counselor and parent Erainna Winnett, Ed.S., who uses her twenty years of working with children ages 6 to 12 to help parents deal with the difficult issues children face in the 21st century.Whether your family is about to change or has already gone through a change, this activity book will help parents navigate the challenges of a blended family with their children.
