Death is like when a toy stops working. You know how your favorite toy might run out of batteries and it doesn’t move or make sounds anymore? That’s a bit like what happens when someone dies. Their body stops working, and they can’t do the things they used to do, like playing, talking, or eating. But just like you can remember the fun times you had with your toy, you can always remember the happy moments you shared with the person who has died.
Another way to think about death is like a book that has ended. Every person has their own special story, and when someone dies, it’s like their story has reached the last page. Even though you can’t read more of their story, you can always go back and read your favorite parts, remembering the adventures and the love they shared with you.
Death can also be compared to a butterfly’s life. A butterfly starts as a caterpillar, changes into a cocoon, and then becomes a beautiful butterfly. When the butterfly’s life ends, it doesn’t mean it wasn’t beautiful or important. It reminds us that life has different stages, and each stage is special in its own way. Remembering the butterfly’s beauty can help us feel better about its end.
