Dinner Conversation Jar


Do you find that when you all sit down for your family meal in the evening that you ask each other the same question, day in day out? 
"How was your day?"
"What did you do at School today"

you always get the answers
"It's been OK"
"Nothing"

I've now put an end to that in our house!
I made this great Dinner Conversation Jar!!
It's filled with nice scrap paper that matches my kitchen decor with questions on each one
here are some of my questions :
"What superhero would you be? and why?"
"What would you like to learn this year?"
"Would you rather be smart or honest?"
"Which fictional villain would you like to be?"


I have made a document with my conversation starters you can download it here and print it off
  I simply folded them in half and placed them in a kilner jar


Now meal times will never be boring again!!!

    These are great! I am going to have to pin this and save for when my girls get a little older. I'd love to have you link this up to Titus 2 Tuesday on Cornerstone Confessions. Hopping over from Our Delightful Home.
