you could get a book like "Ready, Set, Grow!: A What's Happening to My Body? Book for Younger Girls"
The book is well written for girls in the 9-11 age range - I wouldn't go much below the age of 9, however, without being very selective of what the child reads (there is a brief discussion, for example, about masturbation and orgasm, which I think is a bit *too* much for a book of this level). All in all, I think it explained the changes of puberty in very plain language that a young girl can understand, and it's set up in a way that encourages discussion - although again, sometimes it suggests discussing things with friends, which I find to be a poor recommendation considering the age and topic.

Not an expert here, but there are age appropriate books that can be purchased at Barnes and Nobles that explain everything on a 9 year old's level. I just purchased one for my 10 year old cousin and I must say it has worked miracles! She was hearing things at school, and the book cleared alot of things up for her.

Just sit her down and explain it to her. You don't have to get graphic with her, just tell her what the differences are and maybe explain why. (Women don't have what men do because we are the ones that have the babies) And I would go ahead and let her know about periods, because a lot of girls are starting around 10-11 years old, and you don't want her to not know what's going on.

Mother is the best teacher of a girl child. You have to tell her the changes taking place in her life. Not all the things to a 9 yr child.
One by one according to her age.

there is no longer something you're able to do different that take a seat her down and clarify to her what's happening. youngsters are hitting puberty earlier and earlier. some have confidence that its led to by utilising chemical aspects and hormones placed into our nutrition (usually milk). attempt going to any all organic and organic weight loss plan.

when a child starts asking questions the best way is to reply back the answers to her questions and explain her only how she asks you,thats step by step one at a time.

I wouldn't have thought it was too difficult, at least, she came to you to ask, which is applaudable.

Shouldn't you have had this talk with her before now?
