A survey of my parent mates shows we're still using nicknames like fanny, va-jay-jay, front bum, pee pee, doodle, todger and willy.
Some moms and dads will encourage their kids to use euphemisms, such as weenie, pee-pee, peeny, winky, wiener, willy, wee-wee, dinky, down there, gi-gi, buh-gina, doodle, peeper, jay-jay or simply, the business.
Vulva. The vulva is the global term that describes all of the structures that make the female external genitalia. The components of the vulva are the mons pubis, labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, vestibular bulbs, vulva vestibule, Bartholin's glands, Skene's glands, urethra, and vaginal opening.
So my recommendation is always to teach little girls the anatomically correct names for their body parts, including the names and and locations of their vulva, clitoris, and vagina. Just like you differentiate between your son's penis, testicles and scrotum.
Some of our favorite nicknames for the uterus include: Flying Scorpion, Utersouras Rex and Blotation Device.

Normal sexual behaviors in toddlers and preschoolers
Normative (normal), common "sexual" behavior in 2- to 6-year-olds may include: Touching/rubbing genitals in public or private.
Ideally, parents should start teaching those terms even before their children can talk, naming the genitals just as they name other body parts in the inevitable daily round of small-child body care and grooming and, yes, diapering and potty time.
Soap is the most common cause of genital itching in young girls. It can also cause the area to become red and sore. This is called soap or chemical vulvitis. The vulva is very sensitive to the drying effect of soaps.
Curiosity about genitalia is a perfectly normal part of early sexual development. When little kids touch their own genitals or show an interest in looking at other people's private parts, they are most likely doing what young children are born to do: learning about themselves and the world around them.
We described them as “private” because they are generally off-limits to others; we keep them covered. However, they are not so private that we can't speak about them respectfully.
Toddlers, for example, often enjoy being naked and have fun playing with their body, she says. As they explore, it's also normal for children to find that it feels good to touch their private parts. “Curiosity and exploration about body parts are part of normal development,” Michalopoulou says.
noun. Britannica Dictionary definition of PRIVATE PARTS. [plural] informal. : a person's external sexual organs — used as a polite way of referring to the sexual organs without having to say their names.
Keep in mind that when toddlers touch themselves, it's not about sex — it's about curiosity: Toddlers learn about their bodies by investigating them. Plus, even at a young age, touching themselves feels good so, without thinking twice, they do it often.
Unlike adults, infants and toddlers aren't yet aware of the sexual nature of genitals. They are simply discovering and exploring their world — including their bodies. Studies have shown that genital touching is common in early childhood.
This fixation on private parts often occurs between ages 2 and 5, after toddlers get out of the wearing-diapers stage, because they're fascinated with the body parts that they now have more access to, they are learning independence and identity, and they are experimenting with what they can do and how it feels.
