CTF Resources for Kids

Many of us are faced with a difficult decision about whether or not to send our kids back to school this fall, and how to manage school after months of school closures due to the coronavirus pandemic. Please know that the Children’s Tumor Foundation is here to listen, and if there is anything we can do to ease the burden of stress on your entire family, we are here to help.

The NF Parent Guidebook is a free, 160-page resource available to help parents develop tools for the learning issues and anxiety that many children and young adults with NF1 are facing. The guidebook contains information, charts, reminders, and strategies for parents, and each chapter ends with a related activity just for kids.

We hope you will also take advantage of CTF’s library of children’s resources, including our most recent addition, the Moxie & Sparx Explain NF1 Motion Comic Video.

Go to ctf.org/kids to find:

• Moxie & Sparx NF1 Motion Comic Video • Coloring pages • NF Flashcards • Moxie & Sparx Explain NF1 comic book • Understanding NF2 comic book • The Accelerator, a one-page comic about CTF • Reading Lists • Superhero Art Academy

“One of the BEST resources our family has obtained is CTF’s NF Parent Guidebook. It summarizes NF in a way that is understandable. I appreciate the table that lists the various traits as well as the approximate age that they usually appear.
