TableTopics Teen

I was excited to order this item after reading all of the positive reviews online, but became disappointed after having it for a couple days.The cards are thick, which means they put fewer in the heavy duty acrylic box.Many of the questions are not that thought provoking and some require only a yes or no answer which really doesn't spark the great conversation that you hope for.(ie--"Which song gets stuck in your head" or "Do you enjoy doing things by yourself" doesn't really create much conversation).Our family includes 3 very talkative teenage daughters and we often answer 3 or 4 cards at one meal, which means we will plow through the whole box very quickly.We own the game "Life Stories" which I feel is a better option.You could use the cards from this game at mealtime (without using the board) and create the conversation you want.

As an ESL teacher sometimes faced with students who think they have nothing to say, I find these cards invaluable.I don't have to think of questions!

This is my second purchase of the Table Topic cards I also have the family edition. For a family with young teenagers, it is a great conversation starter. We play at dinner, just leaving the cute little box on the table and selecting a different card each day. We played over the holidays with the grandparents and even that was really fun. I highly recommend as a way to keep the communication open between the generations. The questions are appropriate and can generate some real sharing.

I have two teenage boys, one of them in those teenage years when you don't talk much. We have had some interesting dinner conversations because of these cards.We can all be finished eating and cleaning up but one of my sons will still be sitting at the table flipping through the cards and reading questions.Maybe it's the clean up he's avoiding!!Whatever the case, we have had some conversations that wouldn't normally be in our range of topics.
