The questions below are ideas. Don't feel constrained by them.
The only real rule is that most questions should be open-ended ("tell me about growing up" gets a lot more information than "where did you grow up?").
You can also get a lot more out of people with Tell me more and What happened next?
(questions for children to ask to prompt for more information)
Tell me more about that part.
What was that like?
Tell me about [person they just mentioned].
Why?
(questions for adults to ask to keep the ball rolling)
Walk me through that part.
How did the rest of the family react to that?
What was going on in your life around that time?
What happened after? What was the result?
