The video defines consent in terms easy enough for a child to understand and gives examples of basic situations in which consent is necessary. "Some people love to hug, and some people hate hugs. Each person gets to decide what they're comfortable with. Can a hug-loving person just start hugging someone at random? Nope. They need consent."

Like all of the content from Brian's Blue Seat Studios, the animation has the hand-drawn feel that makes the message accessible, immediate and very human. “Using humor to educate has been part of my teaching forever,” Brian explains. “It breaks down barriers, gets people out of their comfort zone and allows them to really hear the message.”
