New Year’s Eve Celebrations are wonderful, and we all look forward to saying goodbye to the old year and welcoming in a brand new one, filled with promise and renewed hope. The tradition of letting off fireworks at midnight, is one that takes place all over the world. These colourful displays are truly beautiful and magnificent to watch. However, the sights and sounds from rockets, missiles and other weapons of war can be very similar to those used for firework displays. This could be highly triggering for refugees and asylum seekers, resulting in possible re- traumatisation and hampering their resilience and wellbeing.
This busy booklet helps to explain and prepare children in a fun and engaging way.
