Abby's Moving Tips

1) It’s normal to feel sad and miss the place you’re leaving. Moving is one of the hardest things kids or adults go through.
2) Talk to people about how you feel, especially friends and family members.
3) When you’re far away from old friends, stay in touch with phone calls, letters, and e-mail.

5) Make a list of what you like about your new place. It’s okay to enjoy the new house, even if you miss the old one.
6) Think of the move as an adventure. Explore your new neighborhood.
7) Find stuff to do. Your new neighborhood may offer activities the old one didn’t.
8) Start new routines that make you feel at home.
9) Keep your sense of humor (especially when you learn that Brianna is your new neighbor).
10) Don't give up. Your new place may not feel like home the first day, or even the first month, but give it a chance. You may end up liking it as much or even more than your old place.
