boundaries & Abuse Prevention resources
No means no!
This book is a simple, straight forward resource that encourages kids to say "no" when they need to specifically in situations involving touch that makes them uncomfortable. As we typically teach our kids that "no" is disrespectful to say to adults, this book may be a tool to help broaden our own communication with children about saying "no." In this way, we equip children in their understanding of the value of their voice and that sometimes "no" may be the most important words they could ever say when it comes to their bodies.
