You have to use the Present Perfect tense. This tense is used for many things, but it's basically used to talk about past experiences.

The conjugation is like this:

I/you/we/they + have + verb in past participle

He/she/it + has + verb in past participle

Examples:

I have traveled to Europe twice.

I have never eaten sushi.

My little son has sung in the school chorus.

My wife has never been to USA.

Have you ever played tennis?

TASK INSTRUCTIONS: MAKE 15 SENTENCES ABOUT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY EXPERIENCES USING THE PRESENT PERFECT TENSE.
