You need

  • A toy microphone (or a hairbrush!)
  • Paper to draw answers

Let's play

  1. Your child is a news reporter.
  2. Interview a family member: favorite food? Favorite game? What were you like as a kid?
  3. Draw a picture of the answers.
  4. Switch: now your child gets interviewed!
Grown-up tip: Record it on a phone; these are treasures later.
