Ok, so she's 6 I think you said? Well, what about showing her on one of her dolls? Or maybe at bath time, hop in the tub with her (do 6 year olds still bathe with their parents?) and show her. I think you just have to word it in 6 year old terms. Good luck, I'm sure whatever you end up doing will be the right choice.
nah...we don't bathe together. I think I can put it into her terms and she will understand.

thanks for all the advise everyone
