Body safety education is an important component of social emotional learning and school counseling. It gives children the knowledge and language to recognize unsafe situations, understand personal boundaries, and speak up if they feel uncomfortable. By learning these skills early, kids gain the confidence to protect themselves and seek help from trusted adults.
Our collection of body safety resources for school counselors, teachers, and parents includes storybooks, counseling games, and activity guides that make difficult conversations easier. These titles help children explore topics like privacy, safe touch, and telling a trusted adult. Interactive games provide a positive way to build trust and understanding in a supportive setting.
