Such great ideas! Our 13 year old has been dog walking for 3 years now - time management for work and school commitments, communications with clients (she uses my email/WhatsApp), money management. The envelope system has worked wonderfully (long term savings, short term, tithes, spending money). Thank you for all of your wisdom! My challenge is letting little into the kitchen.
Thank you! Oh, dog walking, that is a good way for kids to make a little money. I hadn't thought of that! I'm going to add that one in the blog post. Thanks for sharing these! I hear you about little kids in the kitchen, ha! They love "helping", but it's definitely more work to include them!
Thank you. The list is a great help. I have totally overlooked ‚talking on the phone‘. I would like to add a category: First aid / basic med skills Cleaning wounds, treating colds, what to do if somebody has a concussion, fever, broken leg, when and how to call a doctor, how to recognize strokes or heart attacks, natural herbs, when and how to use antibiotics, when not to move a body, etc.
You are welcome! I am glad this was helpful to you. Ah yes! First Aid. An important one! I included this one on the blog, but cut it from the video since it was starting to get too long. Great examples, thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Oh nice! I remember the moment for me as my kids started getting older when I realized that their help was really becoming a big contribution! It's a good feeling!
This is one of the things I love most about home education - thank you for sharing some great ideas. These are the things that are really equipping our kids for adult life!
I’m really enjoying your advice and encouragement for big families. Thank you. I’m newly subscribed here. I also have a channel mainly about homeschooling. It’s fun to get to know likeminded homeschooling moms like you!
Thank you! I'm so glad you are enjoying the videos and thanks for the subscription! I just subscribed to your channel as well. :) Looking forward to checking out your videos! Yes, it's so nice meeting other homeschool moms! Also, followed and messaged you on IG. Nice to meet you!
New subbee here! Oh my goodness, what a blessing! So very grateful to have found you! Absolutely LOVING all of your content that you've so graciously taken the time to share! Absolute amazing wisdoms that are worth their weight in gold. Pray the Lord continue to bless you and yours greatly.

Great video! You covered a lot. Mine are just at the age where they want to learn how to wash dishes and do the laundry from start to finish.
Thanks! Oh nice! I remember the moment for me as my kids started getting older when I realized that their help was really becoming a big contribution! It's a good feeling!
Love ❤️ your video!! Great list of skills… I think our kids should be able to do things without any electronics devices.
Thank you! Absolutely agree on that one! Being able to entertain oneself without a screen is becoming a lost art!

Me too! You are welcome! I completely agree!
Great list of skills to teach kids.
Thank you!

I just found your channel. I'm pregnant with baby number 6 and we homeschool. And now I want peach cobbler 😆😆
Haha! That gave me a good laugh. Glad you enjoyed the video! Blessings to you and your family!
Love this!
