WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF...? ​

Kids learn that we all have a ‘guiding voice’ inside of us we need to listen to that tells us when a touch is NOT ok. This guiding voice helps guide how we think, feel, and act. We discuss a video of a girl sharing her experience with unsafe touch. We work through situations and talk about how we would think, feel, and act with each scenario. We’re going to draw our own ‘safety comics’. Kids can use words or pictures to draw out a situation that shows they know how to make a safe choice (these may overlap into other safety issues, not necessarily sexual abuse). They will also be given sticky situation cards and will be asked how they would respond to the situations. Kids may engage in questions or discussion as they have absorbed the information more deeply. We will wrap things up by them designing the cover of a t-shirt (on paper) to show and symbolize who they are. This helps to bring positive self-esteem, strength, confidence, and empowers kids to know their identity and boundaries.
