Try it together

The question jar

A five-minute activity for grown-ups and kids, with things you already have at home.

Real potato fact: Yukon Gold potatoes were first grown in Canada, and they are named after the Yukon, famous for its gold rush.

  1. Keep a jar and paper slips on the table.
  2. Each time your child asks a big question, write it down and drop it in.
  3. At dinner, pull one out and wonder together. Nobody needs to know the answer.
