What were you like when you were a little girl, Mom?

Customer Rating:
My daughter likes to ask me a lot of questions about my life before she was born, particularly my life as a child. "When did you learn to ride a bike?" "What did you want to be when you grew up?" "What was the naughtiest thing you ever did?"

On and on and on...endless questions.

I bought Just Mom and Me because I thought it would be a fun way to answer some of her questions, but to also ask her a few of my own. This book has opened a dialogue between us. I like to keep it near the dinner table and ask her a few questions before we start eating - oftentimes, the whole family jumps in and we all start talking about our favorites, least favorites, memories, fears, etc.


This question and fill-in-the-blank with your answers book is a lot of fun. It would be perfect for a rainy day, long car ride, vacation, sick child, or a snow day. It would also be fun at family reunions or even at a mom and daughter tea party!

Christmas gift I'm excited to give!

I bought two of these books...one for my 8 year old daughter and one for my 11 year old daughter. I plan to give them the books for Christmas. I am really looking forward to "doing" the books with them. What a great idea!

My 10 years old kids, Sara and Michela and myself enjoyed reading and playing with it. Very sweet way of being carefull about building the relatioship.

Fun Book

Customer Rating:
Purchased two of these books to give as gifts to grandchildren. Arrived in a timely manner. Only wished the book was a little larger in size. The mothers were very happy with the activities and anxious to participate with their daughters - interesting and fun "stuff" to do. Would highly recommend this activity book.

Wonderful and Priceless

Our girls grow up so fast! The times w/ them can slip away if we let it.This book helps bring that bond even closer between a mother and daughter.We take it in the car or hang out on the couch w/ it. The folks at American Girl have filled it w/ quizzes and questions that allow you to know your daughter on a deeper level. Our favorite pages so far are "What were you doing when you were your daughters age" and "What do you think you'll be doing when you are your mom's age?" They say to tear the pages out of the book and switch answers, these pages have become little treasures I know I'll pull out in years to come.It's also just plain fun! Full of recipes, bookmarks, and coupons, Just Mom and Me makes those mommy daughter times even more special.
