Cait and Lily are friends. They like swinging and going down the slide.

Lily likes to poke Cait. But Cait doesn’t like it.
“Poke, poke!”

“Did you have fun playing with Lily?”
“Lily likes to poke me. I don’t like it.”

“If you don’t like being poked, then you should tell her.”
“But what if that makes Lily sad?”

“If you’re not having fun, it’s OK to say stop.”
Heavenly Father wants us to take care of and protect our bodies.

“If someone touches you and you don’t like it, you can tell them no.”

“Maybe I can make up a new game to play with Lily.”

“Great idea!”
The best games are when everyone is having fun!
