Journal Prompts for Older Children

These came to me labeled as 'for older children.'  After reading them, I would say that means roughly ages 8 to 15, depending on the child.

*

Tell about your favorite pet.

What is your favorite thing to do in the summertime?  Why?

Tell about a trip your family took that you particularly enjoyed.  Where did you go?  What did you see?

What is your favorite movie?  Why?

Tell all about your favorite friend and why they are special to you.

Write something nice about your family that they do that makes you happy.

Tell your favorite joke or about something that makes you laugh!

Tell about the house you live in. 

How do you like being the older, middle, or youngest child?  Does it have any particular advantages or disadvantages?

What are you frightened of?

What kind of music do you like?  What is your favorite song and why?

What was your most embarrassing moment?

Do you have a bicycle?  What is it like?

What instrument do you wish you could play and why?

What would you give yourself if you had all the money in the world?  What would you give your family?

What is your room like? 

What is the most adventuresome thing you have ever done?

Write a want-ad that best describes you if you were for sale!

What are your favorite hobbies?

Describe a childhood birthday.

What is your favorite food?  What is your least favorite food?

When are you happiest?

When do you feel proud?

Who or what has had a strong influence in your life?

Why is it important to be honest?

Would you like to be famous? Why or why not? What would you like to be famous for?

What would you do if everyone in your family forgot your birthday?

If you could be invisible for a day, what would you do?

Would you like to have an identical twin?

Are you excited to grow up? What does it mean to be "grown-up" and what do you think will be the best thing about it? What about the worst thing?

Notice! I am going to let this website go soon. When the hosting expires, I am not going to renew it. I have owned this site for almost 10 years, and it's time to move on to other things. Many thanks to all of you who wrote, laughed, cried, took courses, bought books and journals, emailed with your responses to the prompts, joined and unjoined the newsletters and have stopped by at Wordpress and Twitter. There is nothing like the joy of sharing your inner self in a trusting place, so thanks for creating it. It was all of you who made this place, not me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
