Change is a big part of military life. And it can be hard for little ones (and grown-ups!) when things don’t turn out the way they’d planned or hoped.

What if Dad can’t come home until tomorrow? What if we don’t get to have movie night like we planned? When children know there are many ways to solve a problem, they can feel more confident when the unexpected happens.
