Children’s Body Boundaries + Private Parts

Feel free to use pool time and bathing suits to teach your children about their private part areas and sexual abuse prevention. Discussions about private parts don’t have to be strange or shameful. It’s perfectly okay to name the specific parts covered by a bathing suit – vagina, penis, butt, and breast area (for girls) – that shouldn’t be viewed or touched by people outside of you or a doctor who is caring for them in appropriate ways. The mouth is also considered a private part as no one should be allowed to put anything in it (fingers, objects, etc.). *Disclaimer: You and children may deem other areas of the body that are “private” and “off-limits” to others – e.g. legs, stomach.
