Meal-Time Activities: Conversation Placemat

By Tiffany Rudd


Now that school is out, it's nice having Cameron home all day, and not getting all the kids in and out of the car twice a day definitely saves us time. But to be honest, I miss the drive home after school. That ride home was definitely one of our best conversation times of the day. All I had to ask were two questions, "What was your favorite part of today?" and "What was your least favorite part of today?" Just these simple questions got him and his little sister talking the whole way home. 


So, I made this conversation placemat so they can answer these questions around the dinner table each night instead. And, as an added bonus, that means Dad gets to hear all the daily details too. 


Print your own Conversation Placemats HERE. It's best to laminate them if you'd like them to last. Then just go around the table giving each family member a chance to answer the questions. Hopefully you'll enjoy some great conversations like we have.
