Here at Wild and Unstructured Learning we believe that life skills are the most important thing you will ever learn. When we go to school we learn lots of great skills. But what about the basics of life? Taking responsibility for our actions, packing bags for trips, hygiene, cleaning up after ourselves, kindness, the ability to see other perspectives. These are just a few of the things we can learn through this life skills class To equip children and adolescents with essential life skills and executive functioning abilities. Interactive sessions, practical tasks, and age-appropriate activities. During these private classes we will take the learners lead and focus on anything the teahcer feels will benefit them. If there is anthing specific you would like to work on you can arrange this ahead of time with your teacher. Some areas that may be covered during class time depending on age. Age Groups and Focus: Preschoolers (Ages 3-5): Focus: Foundational life skills and basic routines. Activities: Morning routines, basic hygiene, social interaction, and simple cognitive exercises. Primary School Children (Ages 6-11): Focus: Developing organizational skills and academic independence. Activities: Time management, homework routines, basic financial literacy, and problem-solving tasks. Teenagers (Ages 12-18): Focus: Advanced life skills and preparing for independence. Activities: Advanced time management, financial management, goal setting, career exploration, and practical life skills such as cooking and household management.

Other Details
Parental Guidance
Cooking and Kitchen Skills (Primarily for Teenagers):
Activities like cooking can involve using knives, stoves, and other kitchen appliances that can be hazardous if not used correctly.
Parental supervision is advised to ensure safety, especially when children are first learning to use these tools.
Financial Management Activities:
While basic financial literacy activities for younger children are generally safe (like learning to save money using a piggy bank), teenagers might engage in more complex activities like managing a small budget or learning online banking essentials.
Parents should supervise these activities to prevent any mismanagement of real money and to provide practical guidance.
Outdoor and Physical Activities:
Activities that involve physical exercise or outdoor tasks, such as gardening or community clean-up projects, should be monitored to ensure children's safety, particularly for younger age groups.
Online Safety and Digital Literacy:
For teenagers learning about digital literacy, guidance on internet safety, managing digital footprints, and responsible social media use is crucial.
Parental oversight is important to ensure that teens are navigating digital spaces safely and responsibly.
