In the middle of all this running around, when do we have time to talk to our children? Multi-tasking chit chat while driving might feel like a conversation but are you

really getting meaningful face to face time with your kids? One thing our family has tried to preserve is having at least one mealtime together, usually dinner. Whether it’s a 3 course meal created with love or picking up a pizza...we eat dinner together whenever we can. In between bites of food our conversation topics were far from groundbreaking. A typical conversation went something like...how was your day, anyone have homework, how was lunch, etc. I felt as though we were forcing our kids, and ourselves, to answer the same questions every night…how boring! Then one day I introduced some dinner conversation questions to my family. My 11 and 15 year old STILL look forward to picking a new question every night. Parents and children will both share thoughts, feelings, and ideas as your mealtime discussions unfold. Food With Thought is also great for step & blended families. Even the most shy "littles" & "bigs" won't be able to resist joining in on the conversation. Answering fun, thought provoking and silly questions is an easy way to open the lines of communication...for both children and adults! Whether you eat together every night or just some nights, Food With Thought is a wonderful accent piece for your table and your family. Food With Thought also makes a great gift for other busy families and is perfect for the holidays - share the gift of quality family time with friends, co-workers and family!
