It’s important to talk to your 9-12 year old girl about her body and growing up—but it’s just not that easy. You can’t rely on a school health class to do the job. And, even well-intentioned parents can get tongue-tied or dance around certain details to avoid awkward and embarrassing moments.

SO WHAT’S A PARENT TO DO?

Pediatrician, mother and author Dr. Chrystal de Freitas, creator of My First Period Kit & DVDTM, provides vital details every parent needs to successfully share the essentials with their daughters, comfortably at home.

This Frank & Friendly Pediatrician will give your Audience Insights on Talking
to their Daughters about:

• Physical and emotional changes that accompany puberty.

• First periods and menstruation.

• Where babies come from, how do they get out...and how do they get in!

Plus, she’ll answer audience questions and explain how they can set a solid foundation for open chats with their kids in the future!
