How do you explain death to a three-year-old? My husband's father died last month and our daughter still asks about her grandfather. Do I explain death as it is or come up with euphemisms like he went to live on the moon?

you can explain it in a simple way that your child will understand. there are many books that talk about grief and loss, and are specially written for toddlers. the pictures and illustrations are very well-explanatory and will help your child understand how this is normal, and the person who is departed is now in a good space. you can tell the childhood died and became a start thing, why not? :)
