When my kids come home from school, instead of asking them how was their day (answer is usually just “fine” or “fun” or “OK”), I ask them if there was one Interesting thing that happened today at school. When asked this way, they actually stop to think, and then tell me something they learned or a funny story that happened to them.
This way, I get to know something real and a bit deeper about their day…
