Do: Journal

Imagine your extended family living together, as the ancient Chinese did. That means your grandparents, your aunts, uncles, cousins all live with your parent(s) and siblings.

What would the benefits and/or challenges be to all live together? After you are finished with your journal, share your thoughts with at least one other person. Listen to their ideas, too. Do their ideas cause you to add anything to your journal?

     OR

Maybe your extended family does live with you. Share your experience! Who lives with you? What have been the best parts? What is difficult or challenging?

If you could create the perfect home to house all of your family, what would it look like? What special features would you include?
