(00:05):
Welcome back to the Hippo Campus Clubhouse, a fun sel based storytelling podcast for
kids. Aaron here and today atthe Clubhouse, we're learning about you,
your body, its early warning system, and your right to say what goes
(00:27):
grown ups. This is a storythat will mention accurate names of body parts
and what's considered private, the differencebetween secrets and surprises, and will also
introduce the term safety network. Ifthese are terms your family has not explored
(00:50):
before, I would choose another storyfor today. If they are familiar and
you have begun these conversations, Thisis a very safe book to explore these
important topics that are necessary for childrento understand body awareness, consent and safety.
(01:14):
It is a brilliant way to startor continue this topic of conversation in
your home. Now, let's getcomfy, cozy, and ready to open
our hearts and minds. With MyBody What I Say Goes a book to
(01:34):
empower and teach children about personal bodysafety, feelings, safe and unsafe touch,
private parts, secrets and surprises,consent and respectful relationships. Written by
Janine Sanders. It's My Body andWhat I Say Goes. Hi, I'm
(02:05):
Izzy. In this story, youwill learn how to keep your body safe,
and how to say in a big, strong voice, this is my
body and what I say goes.First, let's talk about feelings. Everyone
has feelings. You have feelings,and I have feelings. When I'm happy,
(02:31):
I have a lovely, warm,fuzzy feeling inside my tummy. Sometimes
it makes me want to sing,and sometimes it makes me want to dance.
What do you like to do whenyou feel happy? Sometimes I can
feel sad and I kind of wantto cry. You can cry too when
(02:57):
you are sad. Did you knowthat that is why we have tears?
Yep? And even feeling scared isokay too. Sometimes we can even feel
angry, or we can feel veryproud. We all have different kinds of
(03:19):
feelings, happy or sad, orworried or angry or scared. It's important
to talk about our feelings with theadults that we trust. Now, let's
talk about feeling safe at nighttime,just before bed, I love to cuddle
up on the couch with someone whomakes me feel safe and who I trust
(03:45):
for me. That could be mymom or my dad, or my nana
or my papa or maybe even mytea. We read books and snuggle and
close, and I feel very safe. On Saturday mornings, I love to
go to swim class with my dad. I put on my water wings and
(04:08):
I float in the pool right nextto him. Dad swims beside me and
he holds my hand. I feelsafe, But sometimes I don't feel safe.
I actually feel unsafe. For example, I don't feel safe when Auntie
(04:30):
Katie's dog barks at me when Iwalk by. He's really big and he's
really loud, and it makes mefeel unsafe. And I don't feel safe
when Lexi, the kid from nextdoor, pushes me down the side when
I'm not ready to go down yet. That makes me feel unsafe. Oh
(04:55):
and I also don't feel safe whenone of the older kids at school stands
a little bit too close to me. You know, he's bigger than me
and it's just a little too close, and it makes me feel uncomfortable and
unsafe. When I feel unsafe orsomeone makes me feel uncomfortable, I know
(05:23):
that I can tell a grown upthat I trust straight away. If they're
too busy or maybe don't believe me, then I need to go tell another
trusted grown up. How do Iknow when I feel unsafe? Well,
my early warning system lets me know. See when I feel unsafe, my
(05:46):
body will tell me. I mightfeel a little nervous, like having a
sick feeling in my tummy, ormaybe my heart beats really really fast.
My body they may feel kind offunny, and I might even start to
sweat a little bit. When thesethings happen to my body, I pay
(06:09):
attention to them, and I callit my early warning system. When I
feel my early warning system, Iknow something is not right or not safe.
And when I feel that way,I know that I need to go
tell a grown up that I trustright away. An early warning system will
(06:34):
happen when your body feels unsafe.That could mean something different for everybody,
But a lot of people may feelsweaty or like their hair is standing up
straight on the top of their head. Sometimes you might want to cry,
(06:55):
or you get goosebumps all over yourarms. Sometimes my hands get sweaty and
my heart beats really fast. Butsome people's early warning system makes them shaky
all over, or makes them feela little sick and nauseous and they're tummy,
or maybe sometimes your early warning systemmakes you feel like you suddenly have
(07:17):
to go to the bathroom. Orthat your legs are too weak to help
you stand up. Some people mightfeel only one or two of those things
in their early warning system, andsome people might feel a lot more.
But the most important part is toremember if you feel any of your early
(07:42):
warning signs, you must go andtell a grown up that you trust right
away. My trusted grown ups arecalled my safety network. I feel safe
when I'm with my safety network.What is a safety network, Well,
I'll tell you it's made up offive grown ups who I trust very much.
(08:09):
Anytime I feel unsafe or I'm alittle worried or nervous or even scared,
I can tell any one of thegrown ups in my safety network.
If I'm not able to find thatperson, then I can tell another grown
up on my safety network when Isee them. The people on my safety
(08:35):
network are very important to me,and I am very important to them.
My safety network is made up ofmy mom, my dad, my uncle
Ray, my grandma, and myteacher, missus Lee. The adults in
your safety network will listen to youwhen you tell them when you feel unsafe
(09:01):
or uncomfortable about someone or something.Sometimes we don't always have five grown ups
in our lives. That we cantrust. If you only have two or
three or four people and your safetynetwork, that's okay. And it's okay
to have one person that is notin your family but in your safety network,
(09:28):
like a teacher or a neighbor.My safety network is different than yours.
You can choose any of the grownups that you like and trust to
be in your safety network. Theycan be an anti or an uncle,
a tea or a teo, ateacher, a grandparent, a pop up,
(09:50):
a mommy or a daddy, ormaybe even a friend. It might
even be your neighbor. Anyone whomakes you feel safe should be a part
of your safety network. It's yoursafety network, after all, so it
should be your choice. Now let'stalk about private parts. Private parts are
(10:16):
just that private. We all havebodies, and all of our bodies are
different. Some people are very tall, and some people like me, are
short. Some people have blonde hairand some people have dark hair. I
have red hair and green eyes,but my friend Kai has brown hair and
(10:41):
brown eyes. All of us,all the boys and all the girls,
have private parts. I have privateparts, and my friend Kai has private
parts too. My private parts arethose parts of my body that hide underneath
my bathing suit or are covered bymy underpants. Kai's private parts are those
(11:09):
parts of his body under his bathingsuit or that are covered by his underpants.
Everybody's mouth is also a private part, and private means just for you.
People sometimes call our private parts funnynames, like peepee or evan fanny,
(11:31):
but we should always try to usethe correct names for our private parts.
Boys have a penis, testicles,and a bottom. Girls have a
volva on the outside and a vaginaon the inside. We also have nipples
and a bottom. When a girlgets older, the area around their nipples
(11:56):
grows into breasts. These are thecorrect names for your private parts. No
one should touch your private parts,as they belong to only you. When
you were a baby, your parentsor your caregiver washed and dried your private
(12:16):
parts for you. But now thatyou're older, you can wash and dry
your own private parts because you arethe boss of your body. Remember it
is your body and what you saygoes. If someone does touch your private
(12:37):
parts, especially without asking, orask you to touch their private parts,
or maybe shows pictures of private parts, there are two things that you must
do. First, find your braveand say in a loud, strong voice
(12:58):
with your hands held up saying stop. This is my body and what I
say goes. Then go and trustyour trusted grown up in your safety network
and tell them exactly what happened.Sometimes, if you're sick, a doctor
(13:20):
might need to check your body andcould possibly even touch your private parts,
especially during a physical. This isonly okay if a grown up from your
safety network like a mommy or adaddy or a grandparent is with you and
your doctor, and it is okayfor you or your grown up to tell
(13:46):
the doctor that you would like tobe asked first before they touch your body.
Now, let's talk about secrets andsurprises. Surprises are different to secrets.
Surprises are things that are happy andfun and will always be told.
(14:09):
Secrets, though, can make youfeel kind of bad, especially if a
person says that you must never tell. That's why we don't have secrets in
our family. We have happy surpriseslike not telling Grandpa when we're coming to
visit because it's a surprise, ormaybe not telling Uncle Ray about his birthday
(14:35):
party because it's a surprise birthday party. But if someone asks you to keep
a secret, you can tell thatperson I do not keep secrets. I
only keep happy surprises because they willalways be told. If someone asks you
to keep a secret, like touchingyour private body parts or kiss, or
(15:00):
maybe even showing you pictures of privateparts, you must tell a grown up
on your safety network straight away.Secrets like those must be told, even
if the person tells you not totell. That is not okay. It's
really important that those secrets are toldto your parents or someone in your safety
(15:28):
network. I also have a bodybubble. I love bubbles, and we
all have an invisible body bubble aroundour body. Invisible means you just can't
see it, but it's there.Sometimes people call a body bubble a body
(15:50):
boundary or personal space. Some peopleeven call it their area around their body.
People should not come inside your bodybubble if you do not want them
to. If you don't want tokiss or hug someone hello or goodbye,
(16:10):
you can kindly say no, thankyou, I'd rather a high five,
or you could shake their hand instead, but only if you want to,
because remember, it's your body,and what you say goes because your body
belongs to you. The end.Wow, that was a very informative story.
(16:44):
I especially liked how we learned allof the ways that our bodies can
warn or tell us when something doesn'tfeel quite right. It's important to listen
to our bodies and what it tellsus, especially when we meet someone new
or we're in a new place.I also like how we learned about a
(17:08):
safety network of people who we knowwe can always trust, as well as
your right to decide what happens toyour body, because after all, it's
your body and what you say goes. I hope you enjoyed my body and
(17:29):
what I say goes, and maybelearn something new to share with those and
your world grown ups. If you'reinterested in purchasing this title for your home

my early warning system lets me know. See when I feel unsafe, my

feel my early warning system, Iknow something is not right or not safe.
And when I feel that way,I know that I need to go

(06:34):
happen when your body feels unsafe.That could mean something different for everybody,
But a lot of people may feelsweaty or like their hair is standing up
straight on the top of their head. Sometimes you might want to cry,
(06:55):

But the most important part is toremember if you feel any of your early
(07:42):
warning signs, you must go andtell a grown up that you trust right
away. My trusted grown ups arecalled my safety network. I feel safe
when I'm with my safety network.What is a safety network, Well,
I'll tell you it's made up offive grown ups who I trust very much.
(08:09):
Anytime I feel unsafe or I'm alittle worried or nervous or even scared,
I can tell any one of thegrown ups in my safety network.
If I'm not able to find thatperson, then I can tell another grown
up on my safety network when Isee them. The people on my safety
(08:35):
network are very important to me,and I am very important to them.
My safety network is made up ofmy mom, my dad, my uncle
Ray, my grandma, and myteacher, missus Lee. The adults in
your safety network will listen to youwhen you tell them when you feel unsafe
(09:01):
or uncomfortable about someone or something.Sometimes we don't always have five grown ups
in our lives. That we cantrust. If you only have two or
three or four people and your safetynetwork, that's okay. And it's okay
to have one person that is notin your family but in your safety network,
(09:28):
like a teacher or a neighbor.My safety network is different than yours.
You can choose any of the grownups that you like and trust to
be in your safety network. Theycan be an anti or an uncle,
a tea or a teo, ateacher, a grandparent, a pop up,
(09:50):
a mommy or a daddy, ormaybe even a friend. It might
even be your neighbor. Anyone whomakes you feel safe should be a part
of your safety network. It's yoursafety network, after all, so it
should be your choice. Now let'stalk about private parts. Private parts are
(10:16):
just that private. We all havebodies, and all of our bodies are
different. Some people are very tall, and some people like me, are
short. Some people have blonde hairand some people have dark hair. I
have red hair and green eyes,but my friend Kai has brown hair and
(10:41):
brown eyes. All of us,all the boys and all the girls,
have private parts. I have privateparts, and my friend Kai has private
parts too. My private parts arethose parts of my body that hide underneath
my bathing suit or are covered bymy underpants. Kai's private parts are those
(11:09):
parts of his body under his bathingsuit or that are covered by his underpants.
Everybody's mouth is also a private part, and private means just for you.
People sometimes call our private parts funnynames, like peepee or evan fanny,
(11:31):
but we should always try to usethe correct names for our private parts.
Boys have a penis, testicles,and a bottom. Girls have a
volva on the outside and a vaginaon the inside. We also have nipples
and a bottom. When a girlgets older, the area around their nipples
(11:56):
grows into breasts. These are thecorrect names for your private parts. No
one should touch your private parts,as they belong to only you. When
you were a baby, your parentsor your caregiver washed and dried your private
(12:16):
parts for you. But now thatyou're older, you can wash and dry
your own private parts because you arethe boss of your body. Remember it
is your body and what you saygoes. If someone does touch your private
(12:37):
parts, especially without asking, orask you to touch their private parts,
or maybe shows pictures of private parts, there are two things that you must
do. First, find your braveand say in a loud, strong voice
(12:58):
with your hands held up saying stop. This is my body and what I
say goes. Then go and trustyour trusted grown up in your safety network
and tell them exactly what happened.Sometimes, if you're sick, a doctor
(13:20):
might need to check your body andcould possibly even touch your private parts,
especially during a physical. This isonly okay if a grown up from your
safety network like a mommy or adaddy or a grandparent is with you and
your doctor, and it is okayfor you or your grown up to tell
(13:46):
the doctor that you would like tobe asked first before they touch your body.
Now, let's talk about secrets andsurprises. Surprises are different to secrets.
Surprises are things that are happy andfun and will always be told.
(14:09):
Secrets, though, can make youfeel kind of bad, especially if a
person says that you must never tell. That's why we don't have secrets in
our family. We have happy surpriseslike not telling Grandpa when we're coming to
visit because it's a surprise, ormaybe not telling Uncle Ray about his birthday
(14:35):
party because it's a surprise birthday party. But if someone asks you to keep
a secret, you can tell thatperson I do not keep secrets. I
only keep happy surprises because they willalways be told. If someone asks you
to keep a secret, like touchingyour private body parts or kiss, or
(15:00):
maybe even showing you pictures of privateparts, you must tell a grown up
on your safety network straight away.Secrets like those must be told, even
if the person tells you not totell. That is not okay. It's
really important that those secrets are toldto your parents or someone in your safety
(15:28):
network. I also have a bodybubble. I love bubbles, and we
all have an invisible body bubble aroundour body. Invisible means you just can't
see it, but it's there.Sometimes people call a body bubble a body
(15:50):
boundary or personal space. Some peopleeven call it their area around their body.
People should not come inside your bodybubble if you do not want them
to. If you don't want tokiss or hug someone hello or goodbye,
(16:10):
you can kindly say no, thankyou, I'd rather a high five,
or you could shake their hand instead, but only if you want to,
because remember, it's your body,and what you say goes because your body
