I’ve just discovered this new app… Smiles and Tears
Smiles & Tears has been developed by Nelson’s Journey, a charity based in Norfolk, UK. They support children and young people aged 0 – 17yrs who have experienced the death of a significant person in their life. The app helps support children and young people in their grief. It provides an interactive tool to record memories, send gifts and write thoughts, feelings and emotions.
As well as these interactive tools, Nelson’s Journey have also provided tips on how to manage emotions such as anger, confusion, guilt, loneliness etc. which are all common when someone has been bereaved of a special person.
