Description
Teaching children with special needs about physical boundaries is a crucial aspect of their safety and well-being. This book provides a clear and simple guide to help them understand the difference between acceptable and inappropriate touch.
Through engaging stories, it explains the various types of touch, from accidental to hurtful, and how boundaries change depending on the context. It also explores when and where it is okay to touch others, when others can touch you, and what to do if touch feels inappropriate.
This book is an invaluable resource for parents, teachers, and carers working with children with special needs, offering a valuable teaching tool and discussion starter to help ensure their safety and confidence.
