Needlework: It may seem like a relic of the past, but it can actually teach kids a number of skills that they’ll carry with them throughout their lives.
Learning how to sew won’t just help kids fix up their own clothes in the future. It also helps them practice fine motor skills like hand-eye coordination (starting with the very basic act of threading a needle!), practice planning by choosing patterns and gathering supplies, use practical math skills by measuring fabric, and expand their creativity.
