Understanding Grief Emotions | explainer video made with ngram

About the video

This explainer video was made with ngram to help children understand the many emotions that come with grief. told through a 1930s rubber hose animation style, a young orange cat speaks directly to the viewer about losing a parent, describing sadness as a heavy raincloud, anger as a storm that makes things feel unfair, and numbness as the mind's way of handling feelings that are too big to process at once. the gentle, reassuring tone normalizes these reactions and invites viewers to share what they are feeling too. the short is designed as a conversation starter for parents, caregivers, counselors, and educators supporting a grieving child, and could be used in classrooms, therapy waiting rooms, or at home to open a dialogue about loss, love, and the many shapes that missing someone can take.
