Are you okay?

ChildX has taken over the material “Okay with you?” – to strengthen children’s understanding of consent already at preschool age.

At ChildX, we know that children’s right to safety starts early. That’s why we have taken over responsibility for Okej med dig, a book and educational resource that teaches children about bodily integrity and consent from preschool age.

Early conversations make a difference. Children need language and tools to express their own boundaries – and listen to others. Okay with You? is designed to do just that. The book helps children to not only say “Stop my body!” but also to ask: “Are you okay?”. Through playful stories, reflection questions and educational materials, we give adults the tools to talk about privacy and consent in a natural way in everyday life.

To protect children from sexual exploitation, we must start early. Consent should never be negotiable!

Are you okay?

The initiative Okay with you? was developed by the equality foundation Make Equal, 2021 with the support of the Swedish Gender Equality Agency. The book has since been distributed to thousands of preschools and homes. It was created by author and illustrator Åsa Karsin and published in collaboration with Save the Children.
