Pay attention to the letters "m" and "f", a new notion in French, the gender, some words are masculine and other feminine, sometimes it is obvious to guess but not all the times:
1. Père (m) / Father
2. Papa (m) / Dad
3. Mère (f) / Mother
4. Maman (f) / Mum
5. Frère (m) / Brother
6. Soeur (f) / Sister
7. Grand père (m)  we also say papi or pépé/ Grandfather
8. Grand mère (f)  we also say mamie or mémé/ Grandmother
9. Oncle (m) we also say tonton/ Uncle
10. Tante (f) we also say tata/ Aunt
11. Fils (m)/ Son
12. Fille (f) / Daughter
13. Mon / My
14. Ton / your
15. Ma / My
16. Ta / Your
17. Comment s'appelle ton père? / What is your father's name?
18. Mon père s'appelle Jean / Ma father's name is Jean
19. Comment s'appelle ta mère / What is your mother's name?
20. Ma mère s'appelle Paulette / My mother's name is Paulette

So now you understand how to use "mon" and "ton", for example the word "fils" is masculine so we say "mon fils" (my son) but we say "ta grand mère" (your grand mother) because grand mother is a feminine word!
