Why
More changes occur in a child's body and brain during puberty than any other time in their lives. Puberty also marks the beginning of big changes in their relationships with parents and other children of the opposite sex. It's a wonderful and exhilarating time, because a child is finally becoming an adult, but it can be a stressful and overwhelming time for everyone (mom and dad too!).
What
In addition to sensitively teaching children about the male and female anatomies, significant time is spent addressing the spiritual issues related to human sexuality. Students will learn:
How girls' and boys' bodies are different
The changes that puberty brings
How a woman gets pregnant
How a baby is born
Why God wants people to save sex for marriage
