Book: From Me to You

I recently reviewed the book called "From Me to You" by Mark and Susan Merrill. 

Do you have trouble having conversations with your son or daughter?  This book may be just the thing you need to help open up conversation.  It is a book of questions with space for you to write an answer and your child to answer on the opposite page.

The idea is that you pick a question...you can choose to go in order or just pick a random one....answer it, and then leave it on your child's pillow. They answer the question and return the book to your pillow.  There is no right or wrong way to do this activity, just whatever works for your family as far as if it is a daily activity or once a week.  

There is a great variety of questions included.  A few of them are:

• Name two of your strengths and two of your weaknesses.
• This year, I would like to break the habit of...
• I am amazed at how much you know about...
• What is one thing you admire about each person in our family?

As you can see some of them are more difficult to answer and require deeper thought.

This will be a great way to keep communications line open between parents and child.  

There is a boy version (shown above) as well as a girl version to do with your daughter.  

If you have a preteen or teen, I would suggest trying out this conversation journal. 

I received a copy of these books for my honest review from the publisher.  Thank you!

Have a day of blessings!
