💬 Talk⏱ Quick Play · 5 min⏱ Discovery Play · 15 minAges 6–8

You need

  • paper
  • crayons, pens or pencils

Steps

  1. 1. Pick a grown-up at home to interview.
  2. 2. Think of three questions: What did you play when you were little?
  3. 3. Ask them and listen to the answers.
  4. 4. Draw one answer, then tell someone else about it.

⚠ Safety · Stay nearby

Nothing to watch for.

Stop if:

  • Your child would rather draw than ask — one question is plenty

Easier

The grown-up suggests the questions.

Harder

Ask a follow-up question to each answer: “why?”

Only 5 minutes?

One question.

Why it matters: Asking and listening are the heart of conversation.

Clean-up: Keep the drawing for the fridge.
