Whether it’s cooking a meal, sewing a button, planting a garden, balancing a budget, or even getting behind the wheel — these classes help kids and teens gain confidence and independence one skill at a time.

This list is growing (because life skills never go out of style!), but we couldn’t wait to share it. Know a local spot offering “adulting for kids” classes? Send me an email and let me know! We’ll add them to the list — because it really does take a village to raise capable, confident kids.
