Asking Families About Traditions

December 25, 2024

Family traditions - like storytelling, rituals, or holiday celebrations - play a powerful role in a child’s development. By asking about these moments in visits, you can highlight how shared traditions connect generations past and present, raise cultural awareness and build a positive sense of identity. 

A few suggestions to try:

  1. Did you celebrate any holidays this season? What were they like?
  2. Is there a favorite food you eat at holidays with your family?
  3. What is your family’s favorite holiday? Why do you like it best?
