Conversation Starters

Using Memes and Cartoons as Conversation Starters  

Sometimes it can be hard to spark meaningful conversation with your child, especially after a long day at school. Using high interest, entertaining materials is a great way to engage with your children while simultaneously enhancing critical thinking skills. 

  • Have your child explain the meaning or origin of the meme to you  
  • Take turns thinking of situations in which the meme could be used 
  • Discuss what other memes or cartoons it makes you think of  
  • Have a meme or cartoon of the day
