Conversation Starter Generator
Questions that get more than "fine" out of a child after school, because a specific question about a moment beats a general one about a day.
"How was school?" reliably produces "fine", and specific questions about a moment rather than a day are what get more — which is a question-design problem rather than a communication one.
