Draw an outline of yourself. Around the outside, write words, phrases and sentences about what you love about your body, appearance and physical skills.
​
On the inside, write about the things you love about who you are as a person.

Birthday Suit
Birthday suit - The best to wear
Elastic-tastic shell
Magic suit grows as you do
And always fits so well
Don't squeal eww and ich and yuck
When leaping from the bath
Wipe the mirror clean of steam
Towel-dance and laugh
Nothing beats the feeling when
You're natural, young and free
Baby-naked in the world
Like you were born to be
So next time you are all alone
In your protective suit
Feel the breeze around your bits
Face yourself. Salute!
Toast the person who you are
Kiss yourself. Be proud
Body beautiful, unique
Enjoy! You are allowed
Wait before you pull on jeans
Embarrassed, full of shame
Mirrors are for looking in
Admire your super-frame
Stick your bum out. Shake it wild!
Beyoncé on the mat
Cart wheel, back spin, somersault
Above the flipping cat
Never would you go to school
With everything exposed
Not unless you've lost your brain
(Or reaaally hate your clothes)
But those moments all alone
Just me, myself and I
Bathe in all your gorgeousness
And don’t submit to shy
Love the hidden parts as much
Your secret, beating dreams
Inside-outside wizardry
A body wonder team
And never let the labels scar
or stitch onto your heart
Rip them out and throw them out
They weren’t there at the start
May you wear it long and well
Designer suit of birth
A tailored, one-off miracle
A stunning beast of Earth
