Sex Education for Preschool Children: What Should Parents Do?
Sex education is an important part of children's growth. For preschool children, parents' sex education plays a vital role. This paper will discuss how to conduct sex education for preschool children from many aspects to help parents better guide their children to grow up healthily.

Gender cognition

Parents should avoid having special expectations or preferences for their children's gender and avoid letting their children wear clothes that do not match their gender. This will affect the child's sexual self-acceptance, and then affect the child's personality and behavior.

physical prospecting

It is a good starting point for sex education to let children explore their bodies freely. Choose the right time, such as taking a bath and sleeping. And naturally guide children to know their own bodies, especially reproductive organs. At the same time, educate children to keep their bodies clean and develop good hygiene habits.

Parental role model

Parents' own behavior has an important influence on their children. The affection and moral behavior between parents will set a good example for children to love life and treat sexual problems correctly.

Daily life education

When children can understand words, parents should guide their children to know gender in daily life, such as bathing, dressing, combing their hair and choosing toys. At the same time, children can be guided to observe life phenomena and understand the natural attributes of gender through various media resources.

Answer a question.

When children ask questions about sex, parents should answer them frankly and patiently to satisfy their curiosity and thirst for knowledge.

Understand frequently asked questions

Parents can answer their children's common questions about the origin of life in an easy-to-understand way. For example, by comparing the flowering and fruiting of plants or the reproductive activities of animals, help children understand the mystery of life. In sex education, there should be an appropriate explanation, but it should not be too complicated or too in-depth. Encourage children's curiosity, but also let them know some specific details that they can gradually understand in their later lives.
