Sex Education for Kids Under 12: A Caregiver Workshop

Sex Education for Kids Under 12:

A Caregiver Workshop

Talking to kids about bodies, boundaries, and where babies come from can feel awkward - but it doesn’t have to.

Join us for a relaxed, judgement-free workshop designed specifically for caregivers of children under 12. We'll walk through the questions kids actually ask (and the ones they're thinking but not saying), and help you feel more confident having these important conversations.

Two parents standing in front of a white board with a female symbol and a male symbol talking to two children who are sitting in the front of the board

We’ll explore topics like:

  • Answering "where do babies come from?" in a way that fits their age

  • What "normal" sexual development looks like in young kids

  • Teaching private part rules and body safety

  • Consent skills for the playground and beyond

  • When is a sexualized behaviour something to wonder about?

  • Digital safety basics for younger children

Bring the kids!

While you're in the workshop, your children can join a concurrent program led by our team. They'll enjoy fun, age-appropriate activities and learn a little bit about their own bodies in a safe and playful environment.
