Children may find some texts and images involving the history of the Holocaust quite upsetting. The Memorial offers
A special booklet (in French) with questions calling on children to use their reasoning steers them away from the most shocking images. Markers orient them towards the most suitable materials, such as photographs, recorded testimonies and film clips. During and after the visit, parents or adults accompanying children are asked to help them fill in the booklet. The last page has been left purposely blank for the children to make drawings or write down their thoughts. The page may be exhibited at the Memorial.
The Memorial offers various resources to help parents and educators plan a visit with children. The first thing they will see before entering the building is the forecourt with a bronze cylinder bearing the names of the Warsaw Ghetto and of several camps, and the Wall of Names of Jews deported from France.
• Children can find descriptions and meanings of these places before their visit on the Memorial’s website (link to the Places of Remembrance page).
•
• The "Sarah’s Attic" archival materials can be downloaded to start discussions with children before and after their visit.
