Megamom sent me this note with comments from her boys, so I decided to ask my kids the same questions to see what they would answer. Couple of the items may need a little explanation, so I added the stuff in the parentheses.
Kids say it best- this is fun!!!! Ask your kids the questions- the answers may be funny...Share
This is a cute idea. Copy this note, ask your kid the questions and write down answers exactly how they respond.
