This weekend, a workshop for children and parents will address important subjects like peeing, gender and more in an interactive and engaging manner. Author Neha Singh takes her own book, I Need to Pee, as inspiration to start a conversation around body shaming, gender, sexual predators, self esteem and above all, bodily functions like peeing.

"Is there anybody who doesn't pee, whether it is actors, astronauts or anyone else?" is how she opens the hour-long workshop, breaking the ice almost instantly. "When they first hear the name of the book, children start laughing and giggling," she says, talking about the fact that it isn't just children but adults who tip-toe around these topics, too. Singh uses different instances from the book to delve into other subjects. "For example, I talk about a story where a child has to use a public toilet that is dirty and has a door that doesn't close, and finds someone peeking in. We then talk about sexual predators," she explains.
