Most of the time, my child is at no loss for words. Whether he is telling me about LEGOs or about the latest video game, he is talking around a mile a minute.
There are some days though, where we have both run out of words, but still want to talk to each other.
Enter our ever helpful questions to ask kids! This is a great way to get to know more about your child besides their undying love of LEGOs and video games!
I think as parents, it is good to have a bit of a backup for times when our brains are not able to come up with cool things to talk about or do right in the moment.
For example, it is very helpful to have some plan for road trip games since this is also a time when you are doing all of the other work that comes with going on a trip.
Having a bit of a plan for the kids is also helpful when it comes to the unexpected change of weather.
These indoor activity for kids will come in handy on those days you wake up to several feet of snow and canceled school.
Another fun way to start conversations with your kids or lead into teaching them about something new is to use True or False questions.

You can definitely take your pick on these true or false questions. I find that kids up to a certain age can have very strong beliefs as to whether something is true or false.
While talking about these questions, you can make room to talk about how there are some things that are absolute facts, and some things that are more opinion based.
Some things can also change based on how they are interpreted, for example, Santa’s boots are black.
Traditionally, that is the case, but he could be drawn with boots of another color and that is alright.
In the end, you know your children the best and will know what they are ready to learn and when they are ready!
I hope that these questions bring you and your little ones a lot of laughs and inspire the curiosity to learn more! You are never too old (or young!) to learn new things.
And, as always, you’ve got this!
