How Yearbooks Spark Conversations Across Generations

Yearbooks are more than collections of photos. They are conversation starters that quietly connect generations through shared curiosity, laughter, and reflection. When opened years later, they invite stories that bridge age gaps and bring personal history into the present. Here are the key ways yearbooks naturally spark meaningful conversations across generations.

Birdy Call – A Loud Bird Calling Card Game

[Ad – Gifted Products] Every other Monday, Dann, Amelia, Robin and I get together to play a board game and have some shakes at our local Geek Retreat. I’ve never before been slightly conscious of our board games, until Birdy Call. This is a card game where you will be making some noise, literally, in the form of bird calls! It’s silly, it’s interesting, and it’s quite whacky. I can see it being extremely fun after a couple of drinks with an older crowd too.
