Elämäntarina-päiväkirja: Isoisä

The prompts are simple enough that my dad can jot down a memory in ten minutes, but deep enough that he ends up writing three pages. I love that he can skip around to whatever question sparks a story that day.

I gave this to my grandpa for his birthday and he's already filled in half the pages, the prompts are simple enough that he doesn't feel overwhelmed. The guided questions make it easy to jump around, which is perfect for his short attention span.

My dad started with the "childhood home" prompt and didn't put the pen down for an hour—the one-question-at-a-time layout really takes the pressure off. Jumping around to whatever memory hits him that day keeps it fun instead of feeling like homework.
