How do you help a young child understand heaven is a good place?

Asked by lizzmitch (145points) January 14th, 2010

My daughter will burst into tears randomly when she hears about heaven. She says she doesn’t want to go there because God doesn’t have her toys there or our house and beds there. I have explained to her biblically what heaven is and in a physical way that she could understand. She still has a melt down every time she hears about it. I don’t know what else to do, I don’t want her to melt down everytime she hears the word heaven.
