Meal and snack time at Kiddie Academy are terrific times to teach our students good manners, sharing and engaging in conversation at family style dining tables. This Valentine’s Day, we are offering you a fun activity to add a little extra love at your family dinner table. Gather your loved ones to craft heartfelt questions that encourage dialog beyond the basic, “what did you do a school today” question.
Please enjoy our Valentine gift to help you enjoy a relaxed meal and lovable conversation with your family! Download our FREE guide with instructions and sample lovable questions.
