What is Family Dinner Questions?

Replace the daily "how was school?" with questions that get real answers: "What made you laugh today?" "If our family had a motto, what would it be?" "What is a superpower you would give each of us?" Add the family's names and the questions rotate around the table.

Works from age five to ninety-five, at dinner, in the car and on holiday.
