Whether you ask easy or hard questions, there is always an opportunity to get to know your children better.
"Children can learn to solve problems and practice reasoning in safe, non-realistic situations," says Francyne Zeltser, clinical director of mental health at the Manhattan Psychology Group.
But what are the kinds of questions that get your kids thinking more? Here is a list of some suggestions.
#1 Would you rather be at school all day or at a job?
#2 Would you rather live on land or in the sea?
#3 Better good grades or good works?
#4 Better a dog or a cat?
#5 Rich or poor? What would you like to be?
#6 Do you like a trip far or close to home?
#7 Would you rather build a sandcastle or a snowman?
#8 Would we rather live on the Moon or Mars?
#9 Would you like long hair like Rapunzel or no hair at all?
#10 Do you prefer talking on the phone or texting?
#11 Better a modern world with robots or a daily life like in the prehistoric period?
#12 Read a book or watch a movie?
#13 Home cooked food or restaurant food? Which alternative do you prefer?
#14 Would you rather write the news or be in the news?
#15 Would you rather live in a place where it's hot all year round or cold all year round?
