Such important skills, right now I am teaching my son to crochet so good for his hand-eye coordination, and a fun hobby. We actually just had a discussion about buying gifts v.s making them, our goal next Holiday season is to make all our gifts. Both my children admitted although they love toys the gifts I have made them are the one's they cherish the most. Life skills we will be working on is gardening and some wildcrafting, as well as some basic anatomy, nutrition and cooking skills.
