About This Product

The Kisses Social Story uses a reassuring tone and visual supports to teach children about appropriate kissing behavior. Some children have difficulty understanding when and where kissing is allowed. This story explains that kisses can make people feel happy and loved. However, not everyone likes kisses. The story guides children to ask first before kissing someone and to respect if the answer is no. The narrative and images provide perspective taking around personal space and consent.

This story delivers social skills instruction in a manner autistic and neurodiverse learners can comprehend. Social stories clearly outline situational expectations and common responses to reduce anxiety around social confusion.

Teachers, counselors, and parents can read this story to prepare children for real-world encounters. It builds awareness of personal boundaries and helps prevent inappropriate actions. The story first defines kissing and models asking for consent. Then it demonstrates calm acceptance if kissing is declined. This practical resource turns an abstract social concept into concrete steps children can follow. Social stories foster self-regulation, communication skills, and thoughtful behavior.

The Kisses Social Story proactively teaches children to navigate intimate interactions with empathy and respect.

These books should be used over and over to reinforce the point so I would suggest either putting the pages into a display book or laminating and binding them.
