Use simple terms they understand. The "sex talk" should not be a once-in-a-lifetime event. It should start as early as possible by saying "don't let strangers touch you in your underwear area." at around age 3, and hopefully continue on through out their teen years. Your child should feel comfortable talking to you and asking questions about sex. For a 5-6 year old (first grader) something things like STD's and contraceptives are probably a bit too much for them to handle right now. But simple terms like "penis" and "vagina" (try to use the right names at this age, especially when talking about sex) are body parts a 1st grader is probably aware of, even if just by a more sophomoric name.

Remember, keep it simple. You should plan on expanding on these series of "Sex talks" as the child grows older. If you are comfortable talking about sex, they will be too. Don't make it awkward. And don't worry about covering everything at this age. The very basics will do just fine at this point in there life. As the child gets older, you can explain more.
