Kidpower Children's Safety Comics Irene Van Der Zande

This entertaining and important comic book answers the question asked by countless worried parents, teachers, and other caring adults, "How do I teach my kids to be safe with people while not scaring them?" Instead of using fear to talk about danger, Kidpower makes it FUN to learn to be safe from bullying, abuse, and other unsafe behavior. The engaging cartoons and interesting social stories make it easy for adults to provide crucial knowledge and skills so their children can learn to be safe with other kids, adults they know, and strangers. In this book, you will find: - Entertaining lessons to help kids and their adults have more fun and fewer problems with people. - Age-appropriate safety rules and social stories about boundaries, consent, and checking first.- Practical tools to protect kids from bullying, teasing, abuse, and other unsafe behavior.- Easy role-plays to rehearse skills like staying aware, moving away from trouble, and getting help. This comic book is most appropriate children ages 3 to 10 who are usually with adults who can help them. However, the skills are important for people of any age - adults too! Older children often learn by reading and practicing with younger children, and we also have our "Kidpower Youth Safety Comics" for ages 9 to 14, and our "Fullpower Safety Comics for Teens and Adults" This book is a publication of Kidpower Teenpower Fullpower International, a global nonprofit leader dedicated to providing effective and empowering child protection, positive communication, advocacy, personal safety, and self-defense skills for all ages, abilities, cultures, beliefs, genders, and identities since 1989.
