25 Questions To Ask Your Children
Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.” – John W. Whitehead
It’s been almost a whole year since I asked my children the below questions and its been so much fun to see how their answers have changed in just 1 year. Whether you have your own children, a niece/nephew or a special child in your life, ask them the same questions as a funny little keepsake you can reflect on over the years. Here is the link to the post where I asked my children these questions for the first time.
