“When my daughter was 2 or 3, we got my husband one of these books. I asked her the questions and wrote down what she said. Now every other year we add a little note with her new answers. When she was little the answers were super funny, like I love when you give me ice cream (please do that every day) and as she’s getting older the responses are more thought out.”  – Chelsey, Hip sidekick
