Gonad

Your gonads are special parts of your body that help you make babies. Boys have two testicles as their gonads, and girls have two ovaries as their gonads. These parts help your body produce eggs (in girls) and sperm (in boys). When a sperm from a boy's testicles meets an egg from a girl's ovary, it can create a baby! So, gonads are really important for making new life.
