It varies from boy to boy, some boys get pubic hair before they get any in their armpits others get it there first. On average they the first pubic hairs begin to grow when a boy is around 12 or 13, of course some boys get them earlier and some later.

This is completely normal... I got pubic hair when I was ten, but my sister didn't get it 'til she was 15. It's just part of puberty. More thoughts: My daughters and I started puberty at 8-9. By 10-11 we all had thick pubic hair. Oh, I made the choice at 18 to shave my pubic bare. My girls have seen my shave vulva since they were little and started shaving their vulva as soon as the hair started growing. That was their choice.

It wold not be considered normal for a boy to develop hair on his scrotum by the age of 7. Puberty in boys doesn't usually start until somewhere between 8 and 11, and the development of scrotal hair is pretty far into puberty. If a child is showing secondary sex characteristics such as these at a young age, they should be evaluated by their pediatrician.
