ClassX Video Lessons Youtube Channel Smile and Learn English Vocabulary about FAMILY for children – Family tree for kids
Have you ever heard of a family tree? It’s not a real tree, but a special way to show who is in your family. It helps us see how everyone is connected. Let’s learn more about it!
Here is a picture of our family tree. This is me, and these are our parents. We call them Mom and Dad. We are their children. That means you are my brother!
Our Dad has parents too. They are our grandparents. We call them Grandpa and Grandma. We are their grandchildren. Isn’t that cool?
Our grandparents have more children. They are our uncle and aunt. We are their niece and nephew. Our uncle and aunt have kids too. They are our cousins. We can play and have fun with them!
Let’s see if we got it right. Our grandparents have three children: our uncle, our aunt, and our Dad. Our aunt and uncle have two children, who are our cousins. Mom and Dad have two children: you and me. We are siblings. Isn’t our family amazing?

Create Your Own Family Tree: Use a large piece of paper and some crayons or markers to draw your own family tree. Start by drawing yourself at the bottom. Above you, draw your parents, and above them, your grandparents. Add your siblings, uncles, aunts, and cousins. You can even use photos or cutouts from magazines to make it more colorful and fun. Share your family tree with your classmates and talk about the different family members you included.
Family Interview: Choose a family member to interview, like your grandparent or an aunt or uncle. Ask them questions about their childhood, their siblings, and what family traditions they enjoyed. Write down their answers or draw pictures to represent their stories. Share what you learned with your class and see if anyone else has similar family traditions.
Family Role Play: With a group of friends, pretend to be different members of a family. One person can be the grandparent, another the parent, and others can be siblings or cousins. Act out a family gathering, like a birthday party or holiday celebration. Think about how each family member might act and what they might say. This will help you understand the different roles people play in a family.
