    I have 2 boys and a girl. Boys- 6 and 4, girl 9. My wife homeschools them. They are constantly learning. My daughter cooks and preps meals with my wife for Home Ec type skills. The wife taught my 5 year old (now 6) how to read a few months back and now he is reading everything! The kids (6 and 9) help my reload at times, something they really enjoy. The 2 older kids also shoot. They have a single shot .22 and .410 single shot between the 2 of them. I have been shooting for right at 30 years and have instilled in them the seriousness of shooting and the safety precautions that follow. There are always teachable moments through their upbringing. Plenty to learn. I discourage my kids from getting too involved with video games. I feel it teaches NO retainable skill WHATSOEVER. They are allowed to use the computer once or twice a week for some games, but they like looking at the educational stuff more than games. I try to learn something new every day. Kids are more of a sponge then adults are.
