Help your child build the everyday skills they need to become more independent
Little children are learning how to do things for themselves every day — from getting dressed and brushing their teeth to tidying up and looking after their belongings.
The Life Skills Busy Book provides a simple, age-appropriate and engaging way to help children practise these important everyday skills through hands-on activities and conversations.
Designed for children aged 3+, it helps parents introduce and practise life skills in a way that feels natural, encouraging and easy to understand.
💛 What will your child learn?
Through interactive activities, your child will explore important everyday life skills including:
- How to set the table
- What is an emergency
- Dialling emergency phone number
- Left foot/right foot (plus adapts for shoe lace tying for older kids)
- Left hand/right hand
- Tidying up, sorting books and toys
- How to wash hands
- How to brush teeth
- Identifying wants vs needs, dirty vs clean, safe play vs not safe to play
🌱 Building confidence and independence
The goal isn't for children to do everything perfectly. It's to give them opportunities to learn, practise and have a go for themselves.
The Life Skills Busy Book helps children break everyday tasks into simple steps, making new skills easier to understand and practise.
With encouragement and repetition, little tasks can become familiar routines — helping children feel more capable and confident as they grow.
