How do you grow closer with your son? How well do you know your little ones? For an intriguing and often entertaining insight into how your children see the world.
Children are, let’s face it, a mystery – and what’s going on in their little heads is often as baffling as it is hilarious. But if the role of a parent is to try to bring them up to be as well-rounded and responsible as possible, then it helps to at least try to make sense of how they see the world.
Asking open-ended questions is a brilliant way to find out what they’re thinking and get to know and bond with your children. Plus, it can spark some entertaining conversations and keep the squabbling at bay around the dinner table.
