Drawing "mental maps" of their former home and life spaces can have long-lasting benefits, especially for children. Not only is it a therapeutic activity for them related to the recent pains, but it is also about overcoming the losses of home space and neighbourhood, the places where they used to roam and play and to walk with their parents and siblings and friends. The neighbourhood is the immediate areas and streets and open space near the house where they used to live.
