National Family Day: A Day to Eat Dinner with Your Children is  on Monday, Sept. 28 — just 3 days from today!

Other questions could include: “If you are going to a deserted island for a year and could take one item, what would it be and why?” “If you could meet a person from history, who would it be and why?” “If you could go on vacation anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?” “In the movie about your life, what actor would play you and your family members?”
