Reflection and Comments
Kids are finding out about sex and babies mainly through the media anyway and often it’s the wrong information. But if you feel like your child is not yet ready, then that’s okay! The great thing about this book is that it’s still packed with other relevant topics that would be helpful to discuss at any age, like how babies grow or how different families have their babies in different ways so that kids realise that not everybody is the same, and that’s okay. It introduces different ways to make babies and even talks about how babies can be fed either through the breast or a bottle. The book is straight forward and it’s fun.
