Questions to Ask Your Kid About Their Day

Generally it may be powerful getting your youngster to speak about their day. As a substitute of asking the mundane query “How was your day?,” attempt utilizing one in every of these inventive queries from our mates at Parent Co.!

After I picked my son up from his first day of 4th grade, my typical (enthusiastically delivered) query of “how was your day?” was met together with his typical (indifferently delivered) “superb.”

Come on! It is the primary day, for crying out loud! Give me one thing to work with, would you, child?

The second day, my identical query was answered, “Properly, nobody was a jerk.”

That is good . . . I suppose.

I suppose the issue is my very own. That query really sucks. Removed from a conversation starter, it is uninspired, overwhelmingly open-ended, and albeit, utterly boring. So as a substitute, I’ve compiled a listing of questions that my child will reply with greater than a single phrase or grunt. Actually, he debated his response to query eight for no less than half an hour over the weekend. The jury’s out till he can arrange a foot race.
