Our new house has a breakfast bar.
This is new to me and novel. How did I live without it? I stand at the sink and dole out the food and then whip all the dishes back into the sink. I’m the barista.
Because I spend less time jumping up to fetch things for people I find my minions and I have a lot more time face to face to chat. Three times a day, really. And they’re becoming so interesting and want to engage in conversations.

Our favorite game up ‘til now has been “Would You Rather.” Most “Would You Rathers” involve rolling down a hill of ____________ or rolling down a hill of ____________. Fill in something hurty or disgusting. We were in a rut.
This is my moment! I need to be ready! I need to have things to ask them about and ways to help them engage at their levels.
I’ve complied (ripped off) lists of chattable topics for my kids and yours. Here are some conversation starters, all in one place. Enjoy!

Oooo, I love the conversation ideas? We have something kind of like that for the car. It is a bunch of questions on little cards all connected with a ring to keep them in one spot. We stick it in our glove box. It is fun to ask the off the wall question from time to time. I love their little off the wall answers. Glad the 4th was fun. I agree about the parades.... way too many dance groups and marketing. You gotta love small town parades. :)
