“What did you do?”

“I don’t know.  Can I have something to eat?”

Sound familiar?!  Here at Bethlehem College Kindergarten we know that having a quality conversation with your child about the hours they spend at kindergarten can be tricky.  Sometimes, asking different questions unlocks more detailed or enthusiastic answers.

General questions can feel a bit big and overwhelming to little people, but specific questions that zoom in on the detail of the day can help you to elicit more of a dialogue with your child.  The questions you ask can also help to communicate your values to your child – subtle but powerful!

Try these on for size!
