Good Touch Bad Touch Book for Kids | Body Safety Printable PDF | My Body Belongs to Me | No Secrets
Start the talk every child needs, gently and without fear.
My Body Belongs to Me is a colourful, 36-page picture book that helps children understand their body, their boundaries and the rule that there are never any yucky secrets from Mom and Dad. It uses simple words, friendly animal characters and short pages, so kids stay interested and parents don’t have to find the words alone.
What your child will learn
Their body is theirs, and they are the boss of it
The real names for body parts, with no shame
Safe touch vs. not-okay touch (often called “good touch, bad touch”)
How to listen to their “uh-oh” feeling
How to say NO, go to a safe place, and tell a trusted grown-up
The difference between a happy surprise and a yucky secret
Why they should never share body pictures or keep secret online friends
That it is never their fault, and they won’t be in trouble for telling
The “weird questions” kids ask, answered simply
Where do babies come from? How is a baby born? Why do I have a belly button? Why do girls and boys look different? Will my body change? What if a friend asks to see my private parts? Can someone I know break the rules?
