I just found my 4 year old son rubbing his 5 year old sisters butt. I'm not sure how to handle this.

As long as they don't sleep together is what counts.

Given the age of your kids, I highly doubt that there was any sexual intent.  However, I think you need to sit down with both and teach the importance of respecting each others boundaries.  Additionally, you need to discipline this behavior if it ever occurs again.  Finally, you may want to ask them where they learned this behavior and take appropriate action given their response.

I'm assuming that they sleep in their own bed in their own bedroom.  If not, this needs to happen to prevent this behavior from repeating.
