Faced with frequently exposed cases of child sexual abuse, many parents have begun to pay attention to children\’s sex education. Where to start sex education? Picture books are undoubtedly a good tool. I believe this is also an issue that many parents are very concerned about, so I specially wrote this article to share with you. Before recommending these books we have read, let me first share some of my views on sex education. A while ago, an article about a comparison of sex education in Hong Kong and Germany went viral on WeChat. To be honest, the large number of pictures about both sexes in it made me very disgusted. In the words of teacher Yin Jianli: \”There is a trend in sex education today, which is to tell children all the knowledge about sexual physiology.\” Turning this kind of \”sex education\” into \”sexual enlightenment\” is better than not doing it at all. In fact, I also believe that sex is human nature, and you will naturally understand it when the time comes. It only takes time to perfect it. Therefore, in today\’s social environment, children\’s sex education mainly allows children to understand their own bodies, understand the concept of privacy, and know how to protect themselves. When children are interested in questions such as where they come from, they can provide scientific information. It also makes the answer easy for children to accept, instead of showing the intimate process between men and women unreservedly to children, arousing children\’s curiosity about this question. We must believe that children are innocent, and their curiosity about \”sex\” itself is not as great as we think. They are just curious about the differences between men and women and how they came into this world. As long as adults have a good sense of proportion, It is already good to answer children’s questions in time. If at the right time, you can discuss it with your children in conjunction with the following picture books, it will be the icing on the cake! The following are some picture books on related themes that I have read with my children in the past few years. I have collected far less popular science books than story books, so this list may not be complete, but I personally think it is enough! 1. \”Lovely Body\”, a set of children\’s books produced by Love Tree, leads children to understand their own bodies. Why do I have a belly button? Where do those sparkling tears come from? What exactly does blood do? Children who grow up day by day are full of curiosity about their bodies. However, when they are in the critical period of growth, they do not like to brush their teeth, are afraid of vaccinations, and do not understand why they need physical examinations. After reading this set of books, it is helpful for children to develop good living habits. Although it has little to do with sex education, after getting to know your own body, you can take the opportunity to tell your children which parts of the body are private to you, except when taking a bath with your mother. Anyone else who wants to see it at any other time should refuse. 2. The book \”Body\” in the \”Interesting Science\” series mentions the differences between boys and girls. Mothers can use the pictures in the book to tell their children that the specific difference between boys and girls is not the braids or whether they wear skirts, but they look different \”over there\”. The appearance of the other parts, in childhood, is exactly the same. This level of explanation can basically meet children\’s knowledge needs for the judgment of men and women. 3. \”Mother\’s Milk\” is a work by our beloved Miyanishi Tatsuya. It teaches children to understand the milk of different animal mothers, such as baby elephants, baby mice, piglets, and baby orangutans… They grow up after eating their mother\’s milk. high and highBig, healthy and kind baby. What about me? Likewise, after taking my mother\’s milk, I became taller, healthier and kinder. The end of the book is very interesting. Because of the appearance of his younger brother, the original child reluctantly lent his mother\’s milk to his younger brother. For those who are preparing to have a second child, this book is even more recommended. 4. \”The Story of Breasts\” and \”The Story of Small Penis\” are both published by Populan. They are introduced together. Those who have daughters at home can choose the former one, and boys can choose the latter one to read. Sexual organs such as breasts and penis show curiosity, which is the natural development of sexual instinct in children\’s lives. If parents ignore the laws of sexual and psychological development of their children, they may cause psychological harm to their children. These two children\’s sex education pictures full of warmth can satisfy children\’s curiosity. Moreover, children are actually very pure. For them, introducing these two parts is actually like introducing other parts of the body. After understanding, children will naturally You won\’t be entangled. 5. \”Serena Williams Goes Forward\” has been a hit in the past two years. Serena Williams in the story is a little sperm who lives in Mr. Brown\’s body with 300 million friends. The day of the swimming competition is getting closer and closer, and Serena is practicing hard every day… He knows that he must swim very fast to win the prize-a beautiful egg. At the end of the game, something magical and wonderful happened! Where did Serena Williams go in the end? This story answers the question of \”where do I come from\” for children, and also takes the opportunity to tell them that everyone is unique! It’s a good book. I will tell this story to my children in the future. 6. \”Hello, Science\” – \”How Was I Born?\” \”The topic of how I was born is something that most babies will definitely ask. There seem to be a lot of books that answer this question, but I don\’t have many popular science books. Especially if it\’s the same topic, there\’s no need to buy so many. I buy them. This book from the Hello Science series is How Was I Born? 》The children like it very much, and I personally think it is quite good. 7. \”Learn to Love Yourself\” is a set of three volumes: \”Don\’t touch me casually\”, \”Don\’t kiss me casually\” and \”Don\’t just follow strangers\”. This set of books is highly recommended by a certain company. It teaches children how to protect them from the perspective of stories. Own. If you look at it purely from a story point of view, it is not a great masterpiece, but from a practical point of view, it is worth reading, especially \”Don\’t Touch Me Casually\”, which uses a case of child sexual assault to teach children the secrets of their own bodies. Parts that no one can touch at will, and how to deal with things like sexual assault. 8. \”Growth and Sex\” is the work of Hu Ping, the first person in China\’s children\’s sex education. It is very famous. It is enriched and sublimated based on the author\’s full communication with children. The language is simple and easy to understand. It is a book that children can understand by themselves. It is also a book that can help parents answer their children\’s \”embarrassing\” questions. It is suitable for children in the second and third grade of primary school to read independently.
