Accurate anatomical answers

Everyone has genitals. So why do most of us find it difficult to use the word “penis” in daily conversation? If you want to know how to talk to your child about body parts – in a way that isn’t embarrassing, disrespectful or stigmatic – then you need this modern, inclusive guide. More than a book about private parts for kids, it teaches…

Icon

Ongoing open body conversations

Establishing candid, correct language in your family for “private parts” removes shame and secrecy. Your child can feel comfortable and confident talking with you about their body, sex and sexuality as they grow.

Icon

Body safety

Educating your child with the correct name for our genitals empowers them. They learn about consent, when touching is ok and have confidence to speak up if something’s not right.

Icon

Inclusive, diverse teaching

Bodies come in all shapes, sizes and colours. No two are the same. And that’s totally normal. Teach safe, respectful language from the get-go so your child can sensitively navigate the diverse world ahead.

An informative book parents can use to start shame-free conversations about private body parts.

This book is aimed at the parents. Cath Hakanson has down-to Earth approach to opening up discussions with your child or children about private body parts.

I enjoyed reading this book because it doesn’t just explain things, it gives you directions and tips that are age appropriate in order to talk to them in an open and honest way.

As a parent, it can be so overwhelming with the plethora of information and misinformation available. I dreaded having to talk to my child from wondering where to start and what to say. I especially loved her tips, it provides guidance for what to say and how to say it. It helps to navigate through the minefield of misinformation that they can receive from their peers, media and the world around them.

There are also links throughout the book for further information which is very helpful.

I highly recommend this book.

Frequently asked Questions

Is this guide right for me?

The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts is for busy parents who want to have shamefree conversations with their kids about bodies. But they also want to keep their children safe.

It is for straight talking parents who want to provide their child with accurate information that they will understand. Parents who also want their kids to come to them with their questions (and not the internet or the schoolyard). Parents who are concerned about the impact of negative sexualised messages on their child.

If you believe that kids shouldn’t know words like vulva, penis or sex, then the Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts isn’t for you. The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts is very direct and talks about penises and vulvas in a way that children can understand and not misinterpret. It helps you to talk about the stuff that kids are curious about so that you can satisfy their curiosity (instead of igniting it).

But it is just too embarrassing!

Yep, I agree! I still feel embarrassed at times, when my kids ask me certain questions about sex. But the more that you talk, the easier it gets! Plus The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts includes some ideas on how to get past the embarrassment of talking about sex with kids.

Are my kids too young?

The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts is written for children aged from birth to teens, and is broken down into each age group. So the information will be age-appropriate. And you'll learn ways to talk in ways that feel and look natural.

What if my child repeats what I have said?

That can happen but The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts will tell you what to do so that you can prevent this from happening.

Won't I sound awkward?

Not to your kids, you won’t! The first conversation is always the hardest but The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts provides tips on how to sound more natural.

Haven't I left it a bit late?

Possibly, but it just means that it is even more important than ever that you start talking now with your child now. The Parents' Guide to Private Body Parts will show you how to make amends and catch up!
