Lessons in Responsibility for Girls Lvl Two

This has been wonderful for our family! Very easy to use and implement.

Many times as homeschooling moms we assume that our girls will pick up home economics skills by osmosis Sometimes that is true but many times as mothers we end up so busy that it is easier to do it ourselves than to teach our kids to do things These cute books from Pearables give a parent an outline to help them teach their kids basic home economics skills Personally I am guilty of expecting too little of my kids Each level of this book outlines the tasks a child of that age should be able to accomplish Level one starts at age 6 A six year old is capable of far more than most of us realize but it does take time to teach that child a skill This series recommends that a parent set aside one hour a week to teach their kids how to do these basic tasksEverything is covered here Home organization nutrition cooking baking sewing cutting patterns and hospitality are taught even to the youngest students If your child needs to repeat the book I am sure they would enjoy the projects a second time as well The books are well written with clear instructions simple directions diagrams and cute illustrations The books also tell kids the prep steps they need to do to make sure the project goes smoothly For instance before each cooking project a box reminds kids to put on an apron tie back their hair wash their hands and check for all the ingredientsIt is a shame that so many kids get to college without the first clue as to how to do basic food prep sew simple items and stay organized By using these books a parent will ensure that their child will not be one of those kids
