My favorite game that older and younger siblings can play together to help them get along and bridge the age gap and relationship build is a game I created called ‘Detective’. Mom or Dad supervises while each child takes a turn asking the other child a ‘get-to-know-you’ question. The question can be fun or more personal like, What’s your favorite color (dessert, dinner, best friend)?, or What scares you the most?. ‘Detective’ is a fabulous way to get closer to someone and deepen the already established bond.
