Want a Hug?

Want a Hug? is a happy celebration of consent and boundaries, because when an experience is natural and fun, caregiver and child frequent the material more often, and with joy. It's never too early to teach children about the necessity of boundaries and the power of consent. Developed by therapist Christine Babinec after years of working with survivors of abuse, Want a Hug? is a book about communication, understanding, mutuality, listening, and love. Far from a didactic lecture, this joyful picture book affirms that developing consent skills is a natural, positive, fun, and affirming experience. With colorful, inviting illustrations, children will learn that it's okay to say no and, perhaps more importantly, it's okay to say yes. The power is in the choice.
