> Cut, colour and create with paper dolls and superheroes

> Teaches private parts, gender identity and body diversity

> 10 characters with diverse anatomies and identities

> 30+ inclusive outfits and accessories

Your child’s first step towards body respect and inclusion starts with scissors and a glue stick. ✂️

They’re colouring in capes and choosing outfits… but they’re also learning that bodies come in different shapes, sizes, colours – and that no one body is “better” than another.

The Anatomically Correct Paper Dolls & Superheroes Activity is a fun, hands-on way to teach your child about gender identity, body parts, and body diversity – without making it weird or overwhelming.

Created by sex educator and mum, Cath Hakanson, this printable activity is more than just playtime – it’s an invitation to explore identity, body safety, and self-expression in a gentle, inclusive way.

With this activity, you’ll help your child:

  • Understand that bodies are private, special and different – and that’s okay
  • Learn accurate names for private body parts (like penis and vulva) without shame
  • See gender diversity, disability, and culture represented in everyday bodies
  • Start conversations about body safety, gender identity, and consent – through play

What’s included:

  • A printable PDF to colour, cut and play with at home
  • 10 characters in different skin tones and body types
  • Each character comes in 3 versions: with a vulva, penis, or “draw-your-own” anatomy
  • 30+ diverse and inclusive costumes (that fit every body), including mobility aids, hijabs, capes, and superhero masks
  • A detailed parent guide to help you start the conversation, with child-friendly language and tips
  • A discussion guide to support topics like private body parts, intersex variation, transgender identity, same-sex families, and more

Cut, colour, and celebrate every body

Worried your child might ask confronting questions? I hope they do! These moments are a sign that they trust you. The included guides will help you feel calm, prepared and ready – even if you’re still figuring it out yourself.

Not sure if it matches your family’s values? This activity is flexible and respectful. It gives you language and options you can tailor to your own beliefs and comfort level – without shame or pressure. Many faith-based and conservative families use it with confidence.

Suitable for parents of children aged between 3 to 8 years.

Can I use this activity more than once?
Yes! You can print as many copies as you like for your own family’s use.

Won’t this encourage my child to ask questions?
I hope so! Kids are naturally curious – and it’s better they come to you than turn to friends or Google. By using this activity together, you're showing them that you're a safe person to ask.

Is my child too young for this?
If they enjoy cutting, colouring or dressing up dolls, they’re ready. You don’t have to share more than they’re ready for – the Parent Guide will help you answer questions in a way that suits their age and stage.

What if I don’t know what to talk about?
No worries – the Parent Guide gives you tips on how to start, plus lots of conversation ideas. You don’t need to be an expert to get this right.

Is this suitable for LGBTQ+ families?
Yes – absolutely. The dolls, costumes and language are designed to reflect all kinds of families and identities. Whether your child has two mums, a non-binary sibling, or questions about gender, this activity creates a safe, inclusive space to explore it all.

What if my child asks something unexpected?
That’s okay – you don’t have to know all the answers! The Parent Guide will help you feel prepared, and it’s perfectly fine to say, “That’s a great question – let me think about it and get back to you.” What matters most is keeping the conversation open.

Is this suitable for intersex, trans or gender-diverse kids?
Yes – this activity was designed with all kids in mind. Each doll comes in three versions: one with a penis, one with a vulva, and one with no genitals at all – so your child can choose or draw the body that feels right for them. It’s a simple way to support gender exploration and help all kids feel seen and included.

Is this suitable for neurodivergent children?
Yes – many parents of autistic and neurodivergent children find this activity especially helpful. It uses visual, hands-on learning and clear language to support understanding. Your child can engage at their own pace, and the repetition of play makes it easier to reinforce key ideas like private body parts, consent and identity.

These dolls are lovely! I was blown away by these, so much more detailed than expected, with lots of little added extras, and truly exceeded my expectations. Cannot wait to print and get the kids playing.
