Question:
Any resources or recommendations for educating our kids on sexuality and teach (protect) them against sexual predators and violence?
For preschoolers, it’s approached from a health and safety aspect.
• God created us
• Safe touching
• Swimsuit- no touching where your swim suit touches
• If someone says don’t tell your mom and dad, that means tell mom and dad.
• Resources: Lily Series
Question:
How and when do I address sex with my preschoolers? How much is enough information?
• The book we have is God Made All of Me
• This is also a great website and resource: https://birds-bees.com/
• Secret Keepers Girls
• And just because - these are two of our favorite books (not sexuality related and not sure if the bookstore has them already, but they are great gospel focused books that we love)

What are your thoughts on sleep overs?

• be the parent and know your child
• verify with parents what is actually happening
• ask questions!
• Mixed sleep overs: Ron and Lori said that was a flat no.
Question:
In a world of ideas of how we should be and focused on the outside, how do I teach my child how he/she is meant to be in Christ and be confident from the inside?
