BEing Resourceful


Parents, 

It is extremely important to teach your children how to be resourceful by teaching them hands-on skills. 

Today the girls picked apples from our neighbor's trees by climbing in the trees and bringing them home in the wagons.  

Then the  children and I washed, cut and cooked apple sauce with cinnamon and raw local honey, which we dehydrated to make fruit leather, used the apple peeler, corer, slicer to make five pans of apple crisp to give to neighbors, and dehydrated the rest of the apple rings.  
And, of course, cleaned up the kitchen after our productive afternoon. 


Do you see some businesses within this activity?
