Age 3-5 is a time of curiosity and exploring differences. As your child’s gender identity develops, encourage them to respect themselves and others. Use caution with language that sets stringent expectations of behaviors based on gender. Let them know they can talk to you or other trusted adults about anything. Name these adults in their lives. Teach them about appropriate touch and how to say no to unwanted touch. This begins with giving your child the right to decide who they allow to touch them. This includes family members. For example, instead of telling children to give someone a hug, ask them if they would like to give "so and so" a hug. Also, be ready to give a simple description of where babies come from. The video will explain more.
