Introduction
Bullying is repetitve, deliberate, hurtful behahiour towards another person. The Ladybirds should understand some common behaviours that can lead to bullying and people feeling upset and hurt and be able to recognise them in themselves and others.

Instructions
1. Sit the Ladybirds in a circle or divide them into small groups.

2. Read the following scenarios to the Ladybirds to start a discussion about how they would feel if they were involved in these scenarios.

• You want to join in with the other Ladybirds playing a game but they tell you to go away. This just happens one time.
• Someone invites you to their house for a play date.
• Some of the Ladybirds are calling you names. They’ve done this for a couple of weeks now.
• Someone shares their sweets with you.
• You are going to stay with cousins or granny for a sleep over.
• A Ladybird in your class is having a birthday party but does not invite you.

3. After finishing discussing the scenarios, let the Ladybirds draw a picture of an example of bullying taking place. Depending on the age of the Ladybirds the Leader might need to write a caption to make the meaning clear. The pictures are then all to be stuck to the large sheet of paper and this paper will act as the Unit’s anti-bullying contract for the year. If possible it should be displayed in the meeting area.

4. Remind Ladybirds that their Promise asks them to help other people and that includes helping them to be happy by treating them well. Their Motto also asks them to care and share.
