In a world where safeguarding begins with everyday interactions, teaching consent to toddlers and preschoolers isn’t just possible—it’s essential. Long before children understand the word “consent,” they can learn what it feels like to be respected, heard, and safe. These early lessons lay the foundation for lifelong boundaries, empathy, and self-worth.

Simple songs about consent gently introduce children to concepts like body autonomy, boundary-setting, and respectful communication in ways that feel playful, affirming, and easy to remember. By pairing repetitive rhymes with hand motions, call-and-response, and relatable scenarios, these songs help children internalize messages such as “I can say no,” “I ask before I touch,” and “My voice matters.” Whether used in circle time, transition moments, or home routines, they offer educators and families an emotionally safe, joyful way to teach consent from the ground up.

Lulu Says Yes, Lulu Says No is an empowering story for preschoolers that introduces the concept of consent through everyday interactions. It uses clear, age-appropriate language and relatable scenarios to help children understand that their voice matters and their body belongs to them.
