How This Catalog Is Organized
These resources are sorted by who they are for — because the right tool depends on who is holding it. A board book belongs in a toddler’s hands; a forensic interview doll belongs only in a trained clinician’s. Knowing the difference keeps a child safe.
Every entry includes a Translation field. “Not announced” means the publisher has not officially released non-English versions; “None” means English-only with no plans noted.
A word before you begin. Some of these materials prevent harm; others help a child heal after it. They are not interchangeable, and they should not be blended. Within each age group below, you’ll find them clearly separated into Body-Safety & Prevention, Healing & Expression, and Play & Communication. Start where your child is.
