It is, however, important as parents to know how to handle our toddler’s newfound/ s3xuality curiosity. Note that, it is common and healthy for a child to explore different parts of his or her body. It is the parents’ responsibility to teach the child about their body parts and its function, we must desist from keeping things away from them and the idea of calling these body parts different names. Do not shame or reprimand your child: There should be no shame in being curious about their own or their parents’ body. Teaching about body parts and how our body functions are too much information that you will need to serve in toddler-sized bites.
