TESTIMONIALS

"The puppet show was funny and entertaining and was able to deliver such POWERFUL message to our children, teaching them that they are in charge of their body. This is a hard topic, but for everyone's safety and well being it is a topic we must have. It's been about 2 years that we last saw the presentation: "I am the boss of my body", and my 5 year-old-daughter still remembers everything of the presentation. I truly recommend it because this is a great way to introduce the conversation with the family."​

Together with volunteers we helped hosting the presentation of AFH in Tingo Maria, Perú. It was a success!​ The puppet show caught the attention of the children because it was interactive. Claudia gained the trust of the parents telling them stories, and her testimony. Participants were more than grateful because this was the first time they attend an event like this. All the team was amazed with the performance.

Social Leader
“I love it! The puppet show called “I’m the boss of my body” is a wonderful way to teach children they own the rights to their body. Also these kinds of shows are excellent resources that empower children so they feel positive about their bodies and safe in the knowledge that they have someone to talk to if there is a problem. It is very tough to talk about sexual abuse to a child, however Claudia and her team know the right way to approach that conversation in an interactive and fun way.”
