Individual and group activity called a night at the dinner table

This group is really good children teenagers and adults.
And you do it quite literally as the title implies you have the client describe a night at their dinner table.
It really easy to do and most clients understand it. To the clients this is going to seem like an icebreaker and not really therapeutic in nature.
 
So they're asking the clients to describe what a typical night at the dinner table eating dinner is like you as a therapist can glean a lot of useful information about your clients background or how they grew up. As well as any behaviors that they might have encountered/picked up.
 
Additionally for those of you who are marriage and family oriented this can give insight into the family/marriage structure. You can also glean information about alliances and common interaction and words.
