This “Good Part / Bad Part” activity is a powerful way to remind each other that life is better shared—the good, the bad, and everything in between. This activity is a great one to carry out every day. It allows you and your loved ones to reconnect daily, support each other through the bad times, and celebrate with each other during the wins.

PRO TIP: It’s not just about talking—it's about listening to each other’s experiences, laughing together over the good, and offering support for the bad. This activity reminds us that the most meaningful connections come from sharing life’s highs and lows with the people we care about.

1. Gather together at the table for dinner.

2. Once seated, take turns sharing a “bad part” of your day followed by a “good part.” For example: “A bad part of my day was when ___ happened, but a good part was ____.” This shows that even on tough days, there’s always something positive to appreciate.

3. After you've shared about your days, you can choose to go around again and reflect on an experience you've shared together either throughout that day or the year, discussing both the good and bad parts of the shared moment.
