The answer

Parents must pay attention to raising and nurturing their children, especially concerning their religious upbringing, as indicated by Islamic texts. Observing a child's movements demonstrates a commitment to instilling good qualities in them. Some children may exhibit sexual activity before puberty. A child might also touch their genitals unintentionally due to itching or inflammation, or because they were left uncovered for a long time. Their attention should be gently redirected away from this habit without harshness, and it should be ensured that there is no underlying health issue. It is also recommended to accustom children to modesty and shyness from a young age.
