Free Bullying PDF Workbooks, Guides and Resources for Kids and Teens

Print and display the poster in a classroom, corridor, pastoral space or family area so children have a clear visual reminder of what to do when bullying, teasing or unkind behaviour happens. The one-page guide presents five child-friendly actions: talk friendly, ignore, walk away, talk firmly and report, with short prompts such as staying calm, using respectful words, finding a safe place and asking a trusted adult for help.

Bright animal illustrations, speech bubbles and simple phrases make the message easy for primary school pupils and younger children to understand. Teachers, teaching assistants, school counsellors and parents can use it during anti-bullying week, PSHE lessons, social skills work, assemblies or individual support sessions to help children practise assertive, safe and kind responses.

Everyday discussions about bullying are easier when children have simple words and actions they can remember. The poster explains that real heroes do not bully, protect others, and only step in when it is safe, with examples of bullying including hitting, pushing, name calling, teasing, leaving someone out on purpose and spreading rumours.

The visual layout gives children and teenagers practical bystander responses, such as saying “STOP. That is not okay”, inviting the bullied child to come with them, getting help from a trusted adult, and avoiding fighting or arguing. It is well suited to classrooms, school corridors, counselling rooms, family support sessions and home conversations. Created by Edita Stiborova.

Children aged 6 to 12 are helped to recognise what bullying can look like, whether it happens at school, in the playground, at home or through messages and emails. The booklet explains bullying in clear, age-appropriate language and gives examples such as name calling, leaving someone out, taking belongings, spreading untrue stories, rough play, making fun of family or appearance, and physical behaviour such as hitting, kicking or hair pulling.

Parents, carers, teachers, social workers and family support practitioners could use it with a child who is being bullied, a child who may be bullying others, or a group learning about friendships and safe behaviour. The opening pages introduce questions children may have, including what to do if they are being bullied, why some children bully, how bullying might make them feel, and what to do if they see someone else being bullied. Produced by Tusla and Barnardos.

Teenagers can use the workbook to feel more confident, less isolated, and better equipped to cope with bullying, social aggression and cyberbullying.

It is likely to be useful for secondary school pupils, teens in counselling or pastoral support, and young people working with social workers, youth workers or family support staff. The workbook can be used at home, in one-to-one sessions, or as part of school wellbeing work, especially where a teenager needs structured prompts to reflect on bullying experiences and build coping skills. The authors named on the cover are Raychelle Cassada Lohmann and Julia V. Taylor, with a foreword by Haley Kilpatrick.

Starting a classroom conversation about teasing, name-calling and social exclusion can be easier when pupils can follow a story first.

The comic format makes it useful for teachers, school counsellors and parents who want an anti-bullying discussion starter for children in upper primary or lower secondary years. It can be read aloud, printed for a PSHE lesson, used in a small group, or shared at home to help kids identify bullying behaviour, think about bystanders, and discuss safer ways to respond. The introductory letter is signed by Martha Pickerill, Managing Editor of TIME For Kids.

Children can use the booklet to recognise bullying behaviours and find words for what they are experiencing or noticing.

Activities include a definition match for physical, verbal, emotional and cyberbullying, a bullying word search with terms such as kindness, support, report, coping and speak up, and a word scramble linked to the 7 Commitments, including non-violence, open communication and social responsibility. It is well suited to classroom PSHE lessons, youth group discussions, counselling sessions and home conversations with kids who benefit from simple language and visual prompts. Created by the Youth Services Department Education & Training Center.

The printable poster sets out the THINK framework as five simple questions: Is it true? Is it helpful? Is it inspiring? Is it necessary? Is it kind?

Teachers, pastoral staff, teaching assistants and school counsellors could use it with children or teenagers during anti-bullying work, social skills sessions, restorative conversations or individual support.
