Helpful Puberty resources for children with intellectual disability

As a mum of a young tween approaching puberty I need to give a more visual timeline of what to expect, because I can’t keep up this level of conviction as I scan his face daily for any signs of a beard. All I know is he’s 12 and it’s years away and he believes books over anything his mother might say.

So I decided to go on a deep dive and find out what is out there to help a mama out!

Some of the great resources I discovered include:

Family Planning clinics in your local area should be able to provide some great resources

The Growing Up Book for Boys by Davida Hartman

A Guys Guide to Puberty - Michelle Mitchell books (puberty for girls and boys plus her latest books about sex)
