Interview a Grandparent

Now is the perfect time for your munchkin to do some in-depth Q&A with his/her grandparents. It’s two birds with one stone - entertains kids & grandparents.

• Schedule an interview session - FaceTime or Skype are ideal, but regular phone works too

• Write out a list of 10-15 question

• Document answers (little ones might need help)

• Younger ones can also draw a picture of their grandparents

• Do as many interviews as you can, then compile them into a book at the end
