"Hands Are for Helping, Not Hitting!" is a social story designed for children in Kindergarten through Grade 5 to help them understand why hitting is not okay and what they can do instead when they feel upset.

Using simple language and engaging visuals, this story teaches children that while feeling mad, sad, or frustrated is normal, our hands should be used for safe and kind actions. Through clear examples and positive alternatives—like using words, taking a break, and moving their bodies safely—this social story empowers children with practical strategies to express their emotions in a healthy way.

Perfect for classrooms, counseling sessions, and home discussions, this story encourages empathy, self-regulation, and positive social interactions. We hope this resource helps you help the children you work with!
