Home & Life Skills: A Practical Skills Curriculum for Growing Independence
Teach children the everyday skills they need to care for themselves, their belongings, and the home they live in.
This multi-age homeschool curriculum turns everyday routines into meaningful learning opportunities. From personal hygiene and laundry to cooking, cleaning, basic home maintenance, and household inventory, children build practical skills through hands-on activities and real-life application.
Designed to grow with your child, the curriculum includes four levels of application—from little helpers learning alongside an adult to older children developing greater independence and household management skills.
Inside, you’ll find:
- 10 practical life-skills units
- Age-appropriate activities for ages 3–5, 6–8, 9–12, and 13+
- Hands-on lessons that connect learning to everyday life
- Skill checklists and a Home Skills Passport
- Printable household inventory sheets and restock lists
- A family home challenge to practice putting skills into action
The goal? Move beyond completing chores to developing awareness, confidence, responsibility, and independence—one practical skill at a time.
Perfect for multi-age homeschool families, this flexible curriculum can be used at your own pace and incorporated naturally into your family’s daily rhythms.
