Books to teach 4-6 yos about their bodies

[hopefulfaith]

We've had a lot of body curiosity around here lately, and I need some book recommendations for my kids.  I'm thinking that simply telling them, "No!  You cannot ask your sibling to show you his/her...." is just going to lead to problems.

Nobody has asked where babies come from - right now we're into the whole "my body is different from your body" thing.

Can you tell me your favorites?  What worked for your kids?

Any advice about dealing with this in a healthy manner would be great, too.

Thanks.  :)

I really like Amazing You by Gail Salz. Made for preschoolers, & goes into just the right amount of information.

I like to just affirm that yes, your body is different. I also like to use science books for my kid because they contain very accurate detailed drawings.

Thank you, both!

I had a textbook out this week to show the kids - I do like medical drawings and depictions because they are point-blank, here's-what-we've-got.

I've always tried to be very matter of fact, affirming about "Our bodies are different and yes, that is how...", etc., but lately it seems like the kids are pretty fixated on it.
