Books are a great way to start talking to kids about sex, and you’re sure to find something suitable in this list of sex education books for 10 year olds.

It is most likely that by now, your 10 year old will have started puberty. Which means that you should be starting to think about talking to them about the birds and bees or the facts of life (if you haven’t already talked).  You can learn more about how to talk about puberty and sex with your child, in this blog post.

In this list of sex education books for 10 year olds, you are sure to find a book that will help you to start a conversation about love, sex, relationships and growing up. You will find books that are very general, that cover nearly everything that 10 year olds need to know.  You’ll also find books that are very specific, that cover just one topic in great detail, like consent, sex or human anatomy. 

If you’re looking for a book for a different age child, then have a look at my lists of age-specific sex education books for kids. If you find this list overwhelming, have a look at my favourite sex education for kids, as these are the books I am always recommending to parents.

You’ll find more information about sex education in my Sex Education 101 page. And if you’re a little unsure about what to talk about, then have a look at my age-specific guide to sex education.

Let’s get started!
