I vaguely mentioned a week or so ago that we were trying to teach the boys some practical life skills while sheltering at home. I got a lot of questions and threw together a list of things we have covered. This wasn’t a grand plan. Rather, as Honey and I have done regular housekeeping things we involved the boys.
Outdoors
- lay pine straw
- spray for weeds
- scrape and paint a bench
- screen in a porch
- clean ash out of the fireplace
- start a fire
- blow the driveway and sidewalks
- pressure washing coming soon
Housekeeping
- fold sheets
- iron a collared shirt
- polish silver
- change a light bulb
- clean out a closet
- wash a car
- bathe the dog
Kitchen
- load the dishwasher how mom likes it
- grill a steak on the big green egg
- make fried rice on the griddle
- prepare a full “American” breakfast with eggs, toast and bacon
For Fun
- play poker
- play spades
- make a list on alexa and check it in the app
Happy Saturday!
