Rachel (6) doesn't like it when it's really loud, but she doesn't hide...but she will ask if there's a tornado coming and tell me we need to go to the shelter. She used to cry when she was younger (4 maybe?)
The best thing for her in dealing with her fear was to explain, in as simple a way as possible, what thunder was. So we got a book from the library and talked about it...now she tries to explain it to us. LOL
