Training Your Children in Home Economics eBook is Great for Multiple Ages
While young children won’t be able to do every activity in the eBook, there are activities that you can start working on in this eBook for children as young as preschool.
The ideal target age group, based on my own children, for this book is approximately for older elementary through middle school age (and early high school).
This eBook is also great for all high school students that are lacking in these home economics areas!
Who Teaching Your Children in Home Economics eBook is NOT Designed For:
If your children regularly do all the laundry on their own, plan and prepare elaborate meals, and can whip up a new sundress in an afternoon, this eBook isn’t for you.
If you are looking for a quick solution that will have your children self-sufficient by tomorrow (or next week), this eBook isn’t for you.
If you aren’t really interested in putting in some time to work with your children on learning Home Ec skills, this eBook probably isn’t for you (unless someone else has agreed to work through it with them).
However, if you are willing to put in some time (even if it’s stretched out over a long period of time) working on these important Home Economics skills with your children, then Training Your Children in Home Economics might just be perfect for your family!
But, don’t let me be the only one to tell you about Training Your Children in Home Economics…
Training Your Children in Home Economics answers the call of all those desperate mothers out there who don’t know where to start when teaching their children the basics of running a home. As a member of a generation paralyzed by fear of all things domestic, I know most of us do not want that for our children, especially our daughters. Angie’s book is timely, simple to understand and apply, and the perfect place to begin. I cannot wait to share this gem of a resource with my readers! — Amy of Raising Arrows and Homeschool Blogging
Whether you’re looking for a simple, doable Home Ec “course” for your homeschooled kids or just want some ideas for teaching your kids the life skills they’ll need as adults, Training Your Children in Home Economics is a great solution. Angie covers everything from basic sewing and gardening to meal planning and table manners. She offers practical, manageable tips for preparing the next generation with basic household management skills. And, Moms, this is practical for your boys, too. Your daughters-in-law will love you for it some day! — Kris of Weird, Unsocialized Homeschoolers
I have to confess that training my children to be successful adults is not always first and foremost on my mind. This is probably the biggest impression that I got from reading “Training Your Children in Home Economics” by Angie Kauffman. I realized that what goes on in our house every day has a more lasting value than just whether or not the floor gets vacuumed. Kids, as we know, are always learning. If I’m not training them how to be good stewards of the home… then I’m training them *not* to be. – Amber of Classic Housewife
