This week, the National Post reported that a new doll accessory kit is on the market, helping parents explain "the change" to their daughters. It includes coloured pads and liner stickers, along with a pair of doll panties. It's a great help for that parent-on-the-go who stubbornly refuses to have a frank and honest discussion with their daughter.

Check out this promotional video for the kit, which includes an intensely awkward "rap" that with the verse:

You'll get eggs in your belly /
