Don't Hug Doug ~ Class Sets
A fun picture book to encourage conversations about consent and setting boundaries. Meet Doug. Doug doesn't like hugs.
He thinks they're too squeezy, too squashy, too squooshy, too smooshy. However, Doug is a master of high fives (and low fives and side fives). Some people like hugs, other people don't.
The only way to find out is to ask!

We love this book because it is:
a brilliantly funny story about consent
teaches respect for others
introduces boundaries and saying ‘no’
Learning opportunities:
PSED: consent & boundaries
PSED: discuss who likes hugs and who doesn’t. How can we show we care about someone without a hug? eg. high five, handshake, wave…
PSED: role play asking for a hug/saying no
C&L: draw yourself and write a speech bubble saying if/when you like to have hugs/who you like to hug
Drama: invent your own special high-five
