Synopsis

From birth to graduation, our kids have approximately 936 weeks with us at home. As parents, what are we doing with that time? Will our children be prepared to be independent, capable adults?

Parents today have more on their plates than ever before, and it’s hard enough to find time to teach our kids what they need to know. Many parents might feel overwhelmed by the daunting task of simply identifying what skills to teach kids at each age. Capable helps parents get down to the real task at hand – preparing their kids for the future. Each chapter features a thorough list of needed skills from nearly all areas of life, including:

• Early learning
• Safety
• Health
• Keeping house
• Home & auto handy skills
• Finances
• Career/job skills
• Manners and social skills
• Spirituality and ethics
• Technology
• Everyday skills and errands
• Travel
• Outdoor skills and
• Fun activities and hobbies.

A quick reference guide of skills by age helps parents identify areas they can work on now with their child, no matter the age. Parents, be encouraged. You can raise independent, confident kids, and this book provides the clarity and focus needed to make your job a little easier.
