ABOUT

EMBRACE KIDS

Embrace Kids is an uplifting film by Taryn Brumfitt which brings together a vibrant collection of stories from young people and famous friends alike, who share their experiences about body image, bullying, gender identity, advocacy, representation and more.

EMBRACE KIDS DOCUMENTARY (RATED G)
RUNNING TIME: 79 MINUTES
DIRECTOR: TARYN BRUMFITT

This film aims to improve the body image of young people across Australia and the world. Aimed at an audience of 9-14 year olds, but equally engaging for adolescents, teachers, and parents, this film inspires, educates, and advocates for a world where we are not held back by the thoughts we have about the way we look. Instead, young people are encouraged to figure out what makes them unique and special, and use that to spark change.

RESOURCES
FOR PARENTS

This is a guilt-free zone. There are no “should”s or shame here. Building a more positive body image in our kids can feel completely overwhelming. We’re here to make life easier with a range of resources to help you help your kids Embrace their bodies.

EMBRACE KIDS: THE BOOK

Embrace Kids is the inspiring and practical new book from our very own dynamic duo, Taryn Brumfitt and Dr Zali Yager. Embrace Kids is divided into two parts. The first section helps parents accept and appreciate their own bodies so they can role-model this to their kids. Part two combines stories and science to cover all the major areas of concern for parents, like managing the food environment and the influence of social media, peer drama and bullying. This is a book for every parent who wants to do everything they can to help their kids be confident in who they are and how they look.

EMBRACE KIDS PARENT PODCAST

So many parents know the deep impact of body image concerns. We have felt this ourselves, and know it’s big for our kids, but it’s so big it feels overwhelming. This podcast is the first of its kind to bring together the science and the stories you need to raise kids who move, nourish, respect, and embrace their bodies.
