This resource helps adults and children talk about something we all feel—but don’t always have words for: the need to connect.

Together, you’ll explore:

• Why does the brain need connection to stay healthy?
• How can kids tell when they’re feeling disconnected?
• What helps us feel close again—at home, at school, in our communities?
• What role does technology play in connection and disconnection?

This is a discussion guide to use alongside the picture book Our Table by Peter H. Reynolds. We encourage you to purchase the book from a local, independently owned bookstore or check it out from your public library.
