What people
are saying about using our conversation cards!
“I love these cards! We own 3 decks, Teenager, Anyone and
Father. If you think you know your children, sit down with them
and the Ask A Teenager deck and enjoy the amazing things you find
out about that they would never normaly tell you and the topics
you never thought of discussing. There isn't a wrong answer and
everyone wins! It's a perfect gift that keeps on giving. We love
to share the decks with our friends too!” Suzan,
Britney & Sara, Mineral Ridge, OH
“The high point of our Thanksgiving (the whole family got together on Naushon Island for a week) was playing the "Go Ask Anyone" cards. What a happy time it was. I got home and ordered more!” Lisa & Harry C. & family, MA
“My family and I sat around the dinner table and talked
about Gilligan’s Island for THREE hours after we asked the
‘What was your favorite TV show…’ question!”
Lisa and Pete, and kids:
Katie, Kelly, and Sara of East Greenwich, R.I.
“I took
the Grandparent questions with me when I visited my grandmother,
and I had the first GOOD conversation with her in 10 years, and
it wasn’t about her illnesses.” Dianne,
Needham, MA
“I used the cards with my 11-year-old son. The question
about ‘Who was your bestfriend at my age?...’ got
me talking about my bestfriend at age 11, what he was like, what
we used to do, and how friends change over your lifetime. It was
great!” Brian from Sunapee, NH
“I thought
I knew my father really well…..but we went down a completely
new path based on one of the questions! They are great!”
Elizabeth and her dad, Dan, Chicago, IL

"We went out to dinner with our son and his new college
friends and had a lot of laughs going through the "Ask
Anyone" cards - they helped to keep the conversation flowing
and light - what a novel and useful way to get to know
people better" Mary Lee, Andover,
MA
"I had hosted a party this past Saturday where we played
Go Ask Anyone for 4 Hours :) It was all work people. Honestly,
this is a remarkable way of getting to know people better and
it's a fantastic way of getting discussions going. My friends
and I had a fabulous time playing and had no idea how soon the
4 hours passed. Thanks and good luck! " Yashika,
Boston, MA
"In the past year I have begun managing a new, fairly large
team. These questions have been great in creating opportunities
to get to know the team on a personal level. People get very
excited talking about their histories, where they come from
and their "favorites". " A
Fan, Newton, MA
"These cards are a lot of fun. My friends and I used the
Go Ask Anyone deck while out to dinner one night. We had lively
conversation about each others answers and at the end learned
something new about each other. They helped us to stay away
from talking about work and talk about something new!"
Averil, Salem, MA |

"I went on a four day houseboating trip with 13 other
women and brought the Girlfriends version. It was the hit
of the weekend. Each person took a turn answering the same
question (we managed for each person to get in a question)
and we had convesations that might otherwise take years to
have. And the quieter ones talked too, which was nice. We
even played in the car during the 4 hour ride home. Good stuff.
Great job." Kerry L., Walnut
Creek, CA
"I recently spent the weekend with five of my best friends
in the world, we have known each other for 20 years. Throughout
the weekend we used the questions and had amazing discussions
about all kinds of things. While this group is rarely at a
loss for words, the questions provoked conversations and memories
that made the weekend more special than ever! " Elizabeth,
Newtonville, MA
"Not only did these cards spark interesting and fun conversations
with "girl friends", it's left me pondering my own
life events (past, present and future). What a refreshing
way to get to know others, and myself better!" Gisele,
Boston, MA
”I
used the ‘Go Ask Your Girlfriends!’ cards with
my sister-in-law last week and learned more about her in one
hour than I did in the 11 years I've known her!” Margie,
Boca Raton, FL

"What an amazing idea for a game! Really interesting
conversation starters - a very, very clever concept. This
is great for family gatherings when you often run out of things
to say, instead of defaulting to the television!" Boston,
MA
"I used the questions to start a couple of amazing conversations
with my father over our past two visits. i wish that I had
been prompted like this before my mother died. Great tool,
use it now and often. thanks to the author. " Debra,
CA
"The "Go Ask" cards are great communication
tools and useful in so many situations. Having been a "step-parent"
they were great to use playfully to get to know my new "sons".
Having the questions on the cards eliminates the awkwardness
that a teen (or child) might face in asking appropriate questions,
and also permits a direct focus on the dialogue (rather than
any pressure on coming up with the questions.) Thanks to the
author for devising this easy and flexible way to encourage
communication. " A Fan from Southern
Florida
"We used this at a recent family get together. It was
a great way for us (four siblings) to connect with our dad.
We only needed a couple of questions - because each one would
spawn further discussion. It got us off the typical - "How's
it going Dad?" routine. " A
Fan from Concord, MA
