Winky for boys - but ??? for girls?

[Yikess]

My husband and I are not sure what to tell our DD to call her 'bits' without it sounding stupid or too mature. We refer to the male parts as a 'winky' but are not sure what to say for the female parts? My mother told us it was a 'powder puff' - silly, DH told him it was a 'Mary' (this is totally unsuitable. Any help greatly appreciated!

There have been so many threads about this. Lots of people say you should be correct and therefore call them penis and vagina but I have huge issue with the vagina thing ... the bit that a little girl sees is not her vagina, it is her vulva!

Anyway, we call it a front bottom, but when we've talked about babies I have said that they come out via a special hole/tunnel (?!) called a vagina and explained that is between where wee and poo come out.

Agree on the Mary issue - my friend's DH used this word with their DH completely forgetting fact that his MIL was also called Mary.

DD started our with a foofey, she changed it on her own to a woowoo, now she has a bit (in the singular). When i grew up I had a mini.

DD has a fanny. Her friend has a mini.

DD's use either vulva or Foofoo (latter one not my choice!)
DS's willy or penis.

DD is 2.6, Ds is 5.

When they enquired I told them the proper names penis and vulva, and I refer to them as such.

Generally DS calls his his willy, and DD for reasons best known to herself calls hers her botty.

I've been meaning to ask on one of these threads; what is the difference between a vulva and labia?

We call it a minnie in this house.

Pmsl at powder puff . People are so weird!

DD's that is not mine.......just to clarify.

dd has a foof, her best friend has a Mary(!)

Vulva/vagina for us. I'm afraid I want to puke when I hear the cutesy names.

DH and I called DDs her privates: now we all refer to it as her Piffs - came about naturally - her first attempt to write the word "privates" came out as "Pifits" and it has just got naturally shortened. Works for us, we all know what we mean

I and many others of my age have a Front Bottom.

My dds used to have fangitas, but now they're at school they both have fannies.

...the revolting whispered cutesy euphemisms I hear in the playground etc make me want to puuuuuuuuke!

Thanks for these - I shall have a think about it. Just so you know my parents named the male parts a 'polly' - my younger brother got confused with the nursery rhymn - Polly put the kettle on, my mum was promptly told not to be silly a polly cant put a kettle on!! that taught them. Brings a whole new meaning to Polyclinic?????

pmsl @ polly put the kettle on

We say foof, but dd is only 18 months. When i was small i had a 'wee-wee'.

My daughter has just turned 4 and I'm still floundering over this. It seems there's no right or wrong answer. I/we have no specific word or name for it but when bathing her, for example, I always sort of ask for her permission by saying "can I wash you at the front?".

I never know what to say and I don't know why we find it so awkward as women and mums!
