This resource supports parents and carers to have conversations with children and young people about sexual abuse. During conversations with safe and trusted adults, children and young people may ask questions to help them understand the topic and what they should do. It may not always be easy to know how to answer these questions, but by having these conversations, adults can help them understand what sexual abuse is and give them the language to talk about it. To help adults prepare for having these conversations, this resource gives examples of tricky, challenging and difficult questions children and young people may ask, and guidance on how you might answer them.

Find Your Way is a board game that can be played with kids to help teach them about body safety. It’s played in a similar way to snakes and ladders, but with the goal of helping adults to educate the children and young people in their life about what’s safe and unsafe. If you land at the bottom of a ladder, you can move up to the top of the ladder. If you land on a question, go up the ladder if you know the answer, or slide down and learn if you don’t. You can use a dice and counters you already have or print and make the ones we’ve created.

My Safe Way is a map that kids can fill in to identify safe people and safe places in their community. These are the people and places that children and young people can talk to or go to if they ever feel uncomfortable, worried or unsafe. You can download and print the coloured version or the black and white version for little ones that want to get creative and do their own colouring in.

My Say, My Way is a storybook designed to help teach First Nations kids about body safety. It follows cousins Billy and Bindy as they learn about their bodies, boundary setting, consent, and safe and unsafe touch. The back of the book has guidance for adults to help them explain some of the words used in the storybook. This storybook is part of the ‘My Say, My Way’ resources that were co-created with First Nations men and women, mothers, fathers, sisters, Aunties, Uncles, and Elders from across Australia.
