My Story

Interview a Family Member

Today you get to be a reporter, a detective, and a historian! Learning about your family helps you understand where you came from. So grab a recorder or a pen and paper and ask a relative some questions.

3. thumbs up

   What do you admire most about your parents?

4. two arrows coming together

   What is one thing you and I have in common?

5. dinnerplate with fish

   What was a normal family dinner like growing up? What were some of your favorite foods?

6. girl reading scriptures
