Don't do something stupid like explain gay relationships to a child under 6 or 7. Like he or she would really GRASP what is being said. Let's be realistic. And like the 2nd answerer said, if they area 8ish, they are probably already understanding what is going on and if they ASK, then you should tell.
If it's their mom or dad, that person should explain, not you.
I would just talk about the person that the gay person is with (assuming that person is with someone) as if that person was straight and seeing someone. (whew a lot of person-someones there)
If the child has questions then answer them within your belief system and show that child that you feel that they are smart enough to understand whats happening and why it isn't wrong or something to hide or be ashamed of (assuming you feel that way).
