Review: Perfect amount of depth to get kids started.... - I bought one at Thanksgiving to look through it. Now buying two more. I plan to give them as Christmas gifts to my 13 year old daughter and two of her 13 year old cousins. What I liked about this book is that it covers a nice range of topics at just the right level of detail. The first chapter "Food & Kitchen" provides basic info about eating balanced meals, how to read a nutrition label, how to select fruits and vegetables at the grocery store, food safety and storage guidelines, a basic overview of knives and cookware, basic guidelines for using an oven, stove, microwave, toaster, and toaster oven, and tips on washing dishes. I appreciated little tidbits like suggestions for how to keep your dishwashing sponge sterile. Kids will get a kick out of details like the page that shows illustrations and names of each type of kitchen knife. Each topic is address in about 2-3 paragraphs over a page. But this is perfect because it is just enough info to give kids a basic idea and get them interested. Any more information, and most kids would tune out and think the book is boring. Rather, I feel like kids will skim through this book, pick up some good tips, and be motivated to do online research about the topics that catch their interest and they want to learn more about. Kids are great at using the internet to help them figure things out, and this is a great way to point them in the right direction. The other chapters in the book cover: - personal hygiene and grooming, basic first aid, how to use insurance to see a doctor and what to do to prepare for your appointment, how to spot depression and tips for dealing with anxiety - saving money, budgeting, managing a bank account and using a credit card - goal setting, career planning, and learning from failure - emotional regulation, dealing with stress, anger management, and strategies for staying connected with people you love - problem solving and decision-making strategies' - assessing your own values, growing from mistakes, how to give a sincere apology, and how to ask for help - strategies for maintaining healthy friendships and family relationships, - how to do laundry, iron, tie a tie, clean different types of shoes, and sew a button back on - how to deal with common home maintenance issues like when a circuity breaker or pilot light goes out, how to turn off a water line (and tell the difference between a gate valve and a ball valve), how to fix a running toilet, how and WHEN to use a fire extinguisher, the different types of screwdrivers, how to change a lightbulb, and how to hang an object on a wall without damaging the wall - basic car maintenance and how to read a map, and tips for using public transportation Again, the book does not provide extensive detail on each topic. It's only 134 pages of LARGE print. But I feel it goes a long way towards empowering kids to feel independent and introduces them to a wide range of topics that they then will feel motivated to go learn more about.
Review: Information every teen needs to know - I rarely write reviews but y’all need to know about this. I ordered this book for my 15 year old grandson. When I received it and began to read through it, I was very impressed. So much great practical information! Every teenager needs this book as well as many adults. Great job covering so many life skills and interactions with others! But this book, you won’t be sorry.
