How to take care of each other – a review of comic books from the series “Smurfs and the World of Emotions” – “Smurf who litter” and “Smurf who lost a friend”

There is a family in the Smurfs Village – the little blue characters know their responsibilities, but also help each other in difficult situations. Papa Smurf, the boss, watches over the bosses! The latest comics published in the series Smurfs and the World of Emotions show new problems that children can struggle with. Take a look!

 

Those who do not respect nature deserve punishment

The more sun, the more Smurfsorganizes various games and activities in the open air. In nature, all activities are a lot of fun! However, there is one Smurf who does not appreciate what surrounds him – garbage, dirty and throws dangerous objects wherever he falls. Even though the other villagers point out to him, he doesn’t mind. Reading the comic will show what factors can affect a stubborn Smurf and whether a change in attitude is possible. One thing is certain – it is worth learning to take care of nature! Diane Drory’s Parenting Handbook (with the opinion of a child psychologist), which explains the difficult words involved in caring for what surrounds us, can help start a discussion about the environment. Ways of caring for the environment were also proposed – the Smurfs show us, for example, how important it is to collect death. He also shares his advice with the reader Papa Smurf. It also encourages cooperation.

What Happens After Death?

The subject of the second comic – Smurf who lost a friend– is much more complex. Losing a friend is his departure – death. One of the blue heroes – Smurf Angler – while fishing, he develops a relationship with a beautiful butterfly. It does not harm the animals (even releases the fish immediately after being caught), so its natural reaction is to look after the creature. Unfortunately, as it is commonly known, insects live for a short time – a few days, weeks … The relationship that is born between the Smurf Angler and the butterfly cannot last forever. Diane Drory in her parenting guide asks difficult questions: “Do you also sometimes think about what happens after death? What does it mean to die? Do people have to die? Can you come back from the dead? Do we know when we will die? Does it hurt to be dead? Is sadness after someone’s death bad? Is death contagious? If we are very angry with someone, this person may die? Where do we go after death? When someone dies, does it completely disappear? How not to forget a deceased person? ”. I mentioned all the questions that appeared in the comic, because their detail raises my doubts, but on the other hand … the analyst’s answers are short and consistent, she does not impose views on either the parents or the child. He suggests, explains, drives. Appropriate work of a parent with a child while reading the comic book will help to better understand the pain after the death of a loved one. explains, drives.

An important message

The Smurfs and the World of Emotions is one of my favorite series and I would gladly recommend it to parents. Reading notebooks makes it easier for the youngest to realize and explain what causes some unpleasant emotions. It allows you to discover and name the source of the problem, and also teaches you how to deal with adversity. Both notebooks – The Smurf Who Trash and The Smurf Who Lost a Friend – are based on the scripts of Falzar and Thierry Culliford, drawn by Antonello Dalena, with the colors of Paolo Maddaleni. Beautiful graphics, aesthetic edition and valuable content should persuade many parents to buy. I recommend.
