Alright, listen up, y’all! We gonna talk about them cousins today, you hear? Cousins, cousins… Always around, sometimes a pain, sometimes a blessing, just like them chickens in the yard. Always peckin’ around, but they lay eggs sometimes, so you gotta keep ’em.
So, you wanna know more ’bout your cousins, huh? Maybe you ain’t seen ’em in a while, maybe you see ’em every Sunday at dinner. Don’t matter. There’s always somethin’ new to learn. And what better way to learn than askin’ some good ol’ questions? Yeah, we gonna have us some quizzes for cousins! It ain’t nothin’ fancy, just good talkin’ and gettin’ to know each other better.
First off, you gotta start simple. Don’t go jumpin’ in with no hard stuff right away. Ease into it, like warmin’ up the stove before you cook. You could ask somethin’ like, “Hey, what’s your favorite thing we done together?” See? Easy peasy. Gets ’em thinkin’ ’bout the good times. Maybe they’ll say that time y’all went fishin’ down by the creek and you almost fell in. Or maybe it was that time you snuck a piece of pie before dinner and got in trouble together. Them kinda memories, they stick with ya.
Then, you can get a little deeper. Ask ’em somethin’ like, “What you been up to lately?” Sounds simple, but it ain’t. People, they got lives, you know? Work, kids, troubles… You gotta listen. Really listen. Don’t just nod your head and wait for your turn to talk. Hear what they sayin’. Maybe they need a hand, maybe they just need someone to talk to. That’s what family’s for, ain’t it?
Now, if you wanna spice things up a bit, you can throw in some of them “truth or dare” questions. Not the crazy ones, mind you. We ain’t teenagers no more. But somethin’ fun. Like, “What’s the most embarrassin’ thing you ever done?” Or, “If you could have any superpower, what would it be?” Just silly stuff, to get a laugh and see a different side of ’em. You’d be surprised what you learn. Maybe your cousin secretly wants to fly, or maybe they once wore their shoes on the wrong feet to school. It’s all good fun.
- Easy Questions:
- What’s your favorite memory of us?
- What’s your favorite food?
- What do you like to do for fun?
- Deeper Questions:
- What are you working on these days?
- What’s been the biggest challenge you’ve faced lately?
- What are you most proud of?

- If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?
- What’s one thing you’re really good at?

And don’t forget to ask ’em ’bout themselves. Not just what they doin’, but who they are. Like, “What’s somethin’ you’re really passionate about?” Or, “What’s your dream in life?” You might be surprised. Maybe your cousin always wanted to be a painter, but they ended up workin’ at the factory. Maybe they got a hidden talent you never knew about. It’s never too late to learn.
See, talkin’ to your cousins, it ain’t just about fillin’ time. It’s about buildin’ them connections. Family, it’s important. It’s like a quilt, all stitched together with different pieces. Sometimes them pieces are frayed and worn, but they still hold together. And the more you talk, the more you share, the stronger that quilt becomes.
So go on, ask them questions. Listen to their stories. Laugh, cry, and remember. ‘Cause at the end of the day, family’s all we got. And them quizzes for cousins, they just a way to remind us of that.
Now, if you see your cousin often, you can ask questions like “What’s your fondest memory of us together?”. But if you don’t see them much, try catchin’ up first. Ask what they been up to, how work is, how the kids are doin’. You know, the usual. Then you can slide into the quiz questions. Make it natural, like you’re just havin’ a good ol’ chat.
Remember, this ain’t no test. It’s just a way to get closer to your kin. Don’t be judgin’ their answers, and don’t be afraid to share your own. The more you open up, the more they will too. And that’s how you build strong family ties, the kind that last a lifetime.
So there you have it. A whole bunch of ways to get to know your cousins better. Go on now, give it a try. You might just be surprised at what you discover.
