This study explored children's learning effects on physical autonomy cognition and their learning feelings by integrating picture books into gender equality education courses. This study adopted the pre-test and post-test design of the pre-experimental research. The participants randomly had selected two classes of first-grade elementary school students as the teaching objects, and had implemented an eight-week sex education course. One class was the experimental group that received picture books integrated into teaching, the other class maintained textbook teaching. Before teaching, the Physical Autonomy Cognition Scale was used for pre-testing, then after teaching, post-testing was carried out to compare the quantitative analysis data, and supplemented by qualitative interviews to understand students' opinions on the implementation of the course. The results indicated that integrating picture books into the sexual education curriculum was effective for primary school children's physical autonomy cognition,
