"Essential First Period Kit for Your Tween"

Parents can help their tween feel prepared for their first period by creating a personalized first period kit containing essential supplies such as pads, liners, menstrual cups, tampons, and more. Additionally, including extras like period trackers, spare underwear, and pain relief items can make the experience more comfortable. There are pre-assembled kits available for purchase, but customization is key to making the kit as personal as possible. It's also recommended to introduce puberty and periods through books to help start the conversation.
