I’m impressed. Could this be a step towards school becoming more practical? Don’t get me wrong; things like literature and the sciences will always be important. Still, I think we could find some more room to educate kids on daily concerns like this.
I think it’s idiotic that shop and home ec don’t really exist anymore. Make them mandatory so everyone knows how to do basic things around the house, budget, and cook a basic meal. It’s ridiculous that we don’t cover the basics of survival.
Absolutely. For a teenage boy like myself, learning that I could use a stove (without starting a fire) and cook an omelette (that was actually edible) was pretty revolutionary!
