The PANTS Rule - NSPCC

Talk PANTS

With the help of our friendly dinosaur Pantosaurus, Talk PANTS is a simple conversation to help keep your child safe from sexual abuse.

We share this song / video and the PANTS rules with the children in school as part of our Personal, Social and Emotional and safeguarding curriculum.

Sing along with Pantosaurus!

When's the right time to talk PANTS? 

• bathtime, applying cream or when getting your child dressed 
• car journeys
• when swimming and saying that what's covered by swimwear is private
• during a TV show that features a sensitive storyline
• singing along to our PANTS song with Pantosaurus
• reading our the PANTS storybook together.

Below is a guide about how simple conversations about PANTS can help keep your child safe from abuse.

Please find below PANTS Rule guides for Parents and Carers in different languages:
