Great resources to talk with your children about cyclones without fear!
With Cyclone Alfred on the way, now is the time to prepare, stay informed, and keep little ones calm as we ride out the wild weather ahead.
Talking to kids about cyclones in a way that’s reassuring and easy to understand can make a big difference. Here are three kid-friendly videos to watch together to help them learn without fear:
📺 Birdie and the Cyclone – A gentle storybook-style video perfect for young kids. Watch here
📺 The Dr. Binocs Show on Hurricanes – A fun, animated explainer on how hurricanes (aka cyclones) form. Watch here
📺 What’s a Hurricane? | SciShow Kids – An engaging, easy-to-follow science lesson for curious little minds. Watch here
⏳ Electricity-Free Fun! If the power goes out, keep spirits high with a game of “20 Questions” – one person thinks of an object, place, or person, and others ask yes/no questions to guess what it is. Simple, fun, and screen-free!
💙 Stay safe, stay connected, and let’s support each other through this storm!
