Don't they learn all that in nursery school at the age of three these days?

(If you ask nicely, they'll probably be able to clear up one or two things that may have been puzzling you. )

My daughter was telling me the facts of life the other day - she is 8.
She used all the correct scientific terminology and left us flabbergasted.
It turns out, one of the science books she was given for her 8th birthday has a section on reproduction - she read and absorbed!

I suppose it saved me the job of doing it

Which book was that? We're starting to get those questions from the kids now, so a book might get us off the hook.
