50 questions that open up your child
Conversations that build closeness. You don't have to ask them in order - one question at dinner can open your child up more than a month of daily trying.
What you get
Questions that actually work
It's not about interrogating your child. It's about curiosity, attention, and being together. Here are a few examples from the list.
“What was the best moment of your day - even a small, ordinary one?”
“If you could go back to one day from our life together, which one would you pick?”
“What's a dream you haven't told me about yet?”
“When do you feel the bravest? What's happening then?”
“We don't need to set aside special time to talk. One good question at the right moment is enough.”

When to ask
Find your moment
You don't need a special place or perfect silence. The questions work in the natural moments of the day.
On the road
A car ride is the perfect moment - you're not looking each other in the eye, so it's easier to talk.
At mealtime
Instead of “how was school?” - one specific question.
Before sleep
When your child is calm and open, words flow more easily.
On a walk
Movement and fresh air loosen things up - conversation comes naturally.
