Good Touch - Bad Touch: A children's book to understand personal boundaries and stay safe for kids ages 5 to 10
Description
An easy-to-read book explaining the differences between good touch and bad touch.
A child’s heart is ready to accept everything; be it love, greed, hatred, or respect. A gentle touch provides them with the necessary love, care, and affection that is needed to nurture them. It makes them feel happy, safe, and confident. However, all touches are not good. Touches that make children feel uncomfortable or hurt them, physically or mentally, should be stopped. Children need to understand when to say No, walk out, and inform an adult about a bad touch.
Using simple text and colorful illustrations, this book helps kids recognize the difference between good and bad conduct and how to deal with inappropriate touching. This book is written in the form of a conversation between two girls who share their contrasting experiences during a vacation. The girls later decide to approach their teacher, who clarifies what is normal and what is not. This is a perfect book for parents and teachers alike to use as a tool to start a conversation on this delicate and difficult subject. This book will surely empower kids to stand up, say No, and inform an adult in case of any attempt of sexual abuse.
