They Don’t Remember. You Do.

Their first word. The day you brought them home. The name you almost gave them. Now they get to ask.

The Questions They’ll Ask You

Was there another name you almost gave me?What do you remember about bringing me home for the first time?Did I ever have a funny word for something?What was something about me that you noticed before anyone else did?What did you think I would be like when I grew up?What is a story about me that you don't think I've ever heard?

One Card Is Usually Enough

Ten minutes you didn’t plan. A baby photo on someone’s phone. And the night your kid finds out they called a helicopter a “hopperchopper.”

Their Story Builds Their Sense of Self

Between 5 and 12, kids are working out who they are. Researchers found that kids who know their family’s story have:

Higher self-esteem
A stronger sense of control over their own lives
More resilience when things get hard
Fewer signs of anxiety as teens
“The best single predictor of children’s emotional health and happiness.”
The New York Times, on knowing family stories

Every story you tell them says: we were so glad you came.

The eight About Me categories: My Firsts, Me Back Then, Things I Loved, Everyday Me, Funny Moments, People & Places, Growing Up, Stories to Remember

How It Works

A child holding an About Me card that reads: Was there another name you almost gave me?

Step 1 - They Pick a Card

Any card, any order. Every question is about them.

Child reading an About Me card out loud to their parent

Step 2 - They Read It to You

Out loud. That part matters more than you'd think.

Step 3 - You Tell the Story

The version only you have. Two minutes is plenty.

You Remember More Than You Think

It’s not a memory test. Can’t remember one? Take a guess, ask a grandparent, or pick another card.

Frequently asked questions

When will it ship?

About Me ships in early December. Free shipping typically arrives 5 to 9 business days after it ships, and you'll get a tracking number by email.

What if I don't remember the answer?

Most parents remember more than they expect once a card asks. If you don't know one, say so, take a guess, or ask a grandparent. You can skip any card.

What ages is it for?

Ages 5 to 12. Younger kids can ask you to read the card with them.

Can grandparents use it?

Yes. Any grown-up who was there for the early years can answer.

How is it different from the first deck?

In the first deck, you ask and your child answers. In About Me, your child asks and you answer, and every question is about them.

Does it make a good gift?

Yes, especially from grandparents, who have their own stories to tell.

What's in the box?

107 question cards across 8 categories, plus a how-to-play card.

When am I charged?

At checkout, like any order.

What if it isn't right for us?
