Children and the War How to talk with war minded kids
Edna Dean Baker of the National College of Education presents guidance on how parents should handle World War II with children. She finds that four and five year olds imitate war through toys and toy boats. Six to eight year olds show strong emotional reactions and express hostile ideas toward Germans and Hitler. Older children nine to fourteen seek geography and battle technique and show less emotional response but still need guidance. Baker advises age tailored chats: under six reassure and distract, six to eight discuss war but avoid brutality, nine to fourteen use radio stories and discuss peace and background.
