“Mommy, Daddy; Where do babies come from?” is probably a question that makes many parents cringe. Not from not wanting your child to be informed, but more for lack of knowing how to relay the information in the correct manner. Our children are exposed to sex nearly everyday, whether it be on television, in magazine adverts, street marketing, radio shows... and there is just no way of stopping it, unless you want to blindfold and ear muff your child on a daily basis.


Questions are bound to arise and we need to ensure that we, as parents, are well equipped with the answers to ensure we do not create any confusion or frighten them.


At Bellavida Centre you will find a wonderful parenting course available – “The Birds and The Bees”. This course covers basic sex education principals, how to explain certain sexual and bodily functions, and how to handle and effectively answer difficult questions.


If you are a parent to children between the ages of 3 and 12 years old, then this course is a definite!
