Birdie and the flood

Описание: Birdie and the flood - online storybook for children

It rains so much, Birdie and Mr Frog have to get away from the rising water. 'Birdie and the flood' is a story for young children about recovering from floods.

The Birdie's Tree website offers a series of free online storybooks that parents and carers can read with their children to support and heal young minds during and after a natural disaster.

Birdie’s Tree has been designed to support the mental health and emotional wellbeing of babies and young children, their parents and families, in relation to severe weather events and other natural disasters. The resources are helpful in the ‘preparedness’ phase (before a natural disaster happens), during the ‘response’ phase (while an event is happening) and in the ‘recovery’ phase (after an event has occurred).

Birdie’s Tree has been developed by the Queensland Centre for Perinatal and Infant Mental Health (QCPIMH), Queensland’s statewide hub of expertise in the mental health and emotional wellbeing of expectant and new parents, babies and young children. QCPIMH is a Queensland Government service hosted by Children’s Health Queensland Hospital and Health Service.
