Boundaries are guidelines, rules, or limits that separates your physical space, feelings, and needs from others. Social boundaries represent physical and emotional limits that you don't want people to cross. They identify a safe and permissible way for other people to behave towards you. Being able to set and respect boundaries is a crucial part of self-care and personal development that will serve your students well throughout their entire lives. Teaching boundaries and personal space to your students is essential in helping them reach and maintain successful personal relationships, increase self-esteem and awareness, and take responsibility for creating a life that they choose versus one they are simply at the will of others.

This resource consists of 35 fun, engaging, and highly relevant activities that students can relate to to help them learn and practice how to set boundaries for themselves and respect those of others. Topics these activities relate to include:

☆ Setting/Developing healthy personal and social boundaries
☆ Respecting other people's boundaries
☆ Navigating difficult social situations
☆ Articulating personal feelings and communicating boundaries respectfully
☆ Recognizing and addressing when boundaries are being crossed, ignored, or violated
☆ Brainstorming solutions to boundary-related problems and conflicts
☆ Speaking out against unwanted behaviors


Some of the scenarios included in the activities can be used for role-playing, too! Students can practice advocating for themselves and using their words effectively to say 'No." These 'what if" scenarios can help your students explore possible solutions for creating boundaries by practicing different exercises, such as 'I statements," saying 'No" in a respectful but clear way, and appropriate gesture/nonverbal cues to indicate unwanted/uncomfortable behaviors.

This resource includes both print and digital versions (with text boxes already created)! You can assign activities to students in person or remotely " either way works!

The graphics, clipart, page borders, and fonts in these activity worksheets are so visually appealing, your students will appreciate it! Please note that clipart and images are for older students, and are not "babyish" or "cartoonish."
