Little BIG Chats: Consent

The Little BIG Chats series has been written to assist parents, caregivers and educators to have open and age-appropriate conversations with early learners around crucial, and yet at times, ‘tough’ topics.

This book is a simple introduction to consent and a child's right to their own personal space. Begin consent education early by asking for your child's consent and explaining to them what you are doing as you interact together, and why. For example, "Can I hold your hand? I'm doing this so we can safely walk together across the road." Wherever possible, allow your child body autonomy.

Some pages will have questions for your child to interact with and discuss. Additionally, a set of Discussion Questions are provided at the end of the book to encourage further exploration of the topic. They are intended as a guide, and can be used to initiate open, age-appropriate and empowering conversations with your child.

Suitable for ages 2 to 6.
