Parents Are Human (parentsarehuman.com) is a bilingual connection card game designed to spark deep conversations between you and your loved ones. Each deck contains 70 increasingly deep prompts, with two levels of difficulty, to inspire connection, compassion, and vulnerability. Each card includes a question or action in English on the front and Japanese (including romaji) on the back to help bridge language, culture, and generational gaps.
This was developed by a young Asian American who wanted to close the gap in a distant relationship he had with his parents for over a decade. Questions reflect the areas people are most interested in learning about their parents—Life Events, Wisdom, Identity, Relationships, and Actions. Each card has a level indicated in the top left corner with one 🌶 or two 🌶🌶 chili peppers. Start with a few light and easy questions or jump into the hard stuff right away. You control how you want to play.
(and you can use this outside of the family as a way of getting to know other people too!)
