Consent is already part of children’s everyday lives.

It shows up when someone wants a hug. When play gets too rough. When a friend keeps asking after hearing no. When a child changes their mind. When something feels uncomfortable, but they are not sure what to say.

These are skills children can start practising now, before the stakes get higher.

Speaking Franklie About Consent is a fun, interactive workshop where children and their trusted adult learn and practise these skills together.

This isn’t a two-hour talk about consent. Children will have lots of opportunities to use their voice, make choices, change their mind, hear no, respond respectfully and find the words to ask for help.

This workshop is for all genders.

What we’ll explore

Together, children and adults will explore:

what consent and boundaries look like in everyday life
how to speak up, change your mind and ask for help
how to notice body clues and check in when something changes
how to hear no, respect boundaries and respond when you get it wrong
privacy, secrets, surprises and growing independence

A workshop you do together

Franklie brings children and trusted adults into the same room so families can build the language together.

Adults are part of the workshop too.

You’ll practise asking, listening, setting boundaries and accepting no alongside your child, giving you shared words and experiences to keep using at home long after the workshop finishes.

The aim is simple: to help children feel more confident using their voice, and more capable of listening when someone else uses theirs.

You’ll leave with

practical language for speaking up and setting boundaries
experience practising how to hear and accept no
simple tools for noticing body clues and checking in
a clearer understanding of privacy, secrets, surprises and getting help
shared language to keep the conversation going at home

Who it’s for

Children aged 8+ and their parent, carer or trusted adult.

All genders are welcome.

No prior knowledge is needed. The workshop is designed to make these conversations practical, calm, fun and easier to continue at home.
