This all started about christmas, when I went upstairs to see my middle daughter to bed, popped into see youngest when I noticed how hot and red in the face she was! When i asked her what she had been doing she wouldnt answer, so I joked with her and said have you been exercising!!!! yes she replied! I thought nothing more of it, although have caught hot and bothered a few times until late last week when eldest daughter said to me "mum you do know what her exercises are don't you!" I told her no and then she said "Mum she puts Winnie the Pooh under her and goes on and off him on his leg!" My eldest was so embarrassed I know she wasnt making it up!
What do I do, ignore it or say something!

if she is only doing it in private I would leave well alone.

Explain that touching or rubbing yourself is normal and a pleasant thing to do but that it is private, and not something we do when other people are around.

I think it's the best thing to do with the Disney Pooh TBH

So far she is only doing it in her bedroom, but have just found out that middle daughter also knows that she does it! I have known other children to do this, but never thought mine would.

I guess she is not being so private if the other children all know about it

Don't be worried about it, it is so normal

Perhaps pop WtP in the wash occasionally too?

Its a really hard thing to think about that your child gets pleasure from doing that kind of thing! I always said that this child would be the one that gives me trouble!
