Ditto to Elizabeth and Amanda (I’d like to add changing a tire). And, one more thing, a little first aid. Not a lot, just washing a wound, bandage or not, what to do with minor scrapes, cuts, bruises and sprains until help is available.
All the skills you listed builds amazing confidence. It also gives a little comfort to the parent who finds it necessary to leave an older child to care for siblings.

Absolutely! For this post, I was just thinking of specific home-related skills. I would definitely include auto maintenance in a life skills or auto-related skills list.

Checking oil, tire pressure, and keeping the vehicle clean just like the house.
