Educating Kids Basic Sewing at Home and School
Good day to all Beautiful @homeedders readers from all over the world. I hope that your New Year starts very well and it’s nice to be back here after being busy from holiday season to New Year preparation.
Online class is back once again and the kid’s lesson is getting more challenging not only through answering modules but also in actual learning such as sewing. I remember when I was in grade 3 our teacher taught us how to do a rug matt. Every year we are given a task to do basic sewing crocheting and etc.
Today my 11 years old daughter ask a help from me how to do the sewing. Her teacher gave them a task to do the basic sewing using the basic materials to sew and measuring using a tape measure. They were ask by their teacher to submit a scrap book of basic sewing materials such as needles, thread, pins, pin cushion, scissors, tape measure and etc.
The first thing that I taught my daughter to do is how to put inside the thread into the small hole of the needle. When I was young it was a tough for me because of the needle hole is so small so I need to make sure that my thread will fit into the needle hole. I have a strategy how to make it easier I just need to cut the thread and it must be a clean cut and I will put a bit of water to the thread so that the thread will not be soft to put inside the small hole and that is what my Mama told me to do when I was young.
I believe that everyone woman or men should know basic sewing that is the reason why that it is taught in schools. When I reach high school the sewing lessons becomes tougher we are ask to submit a projects by sewing such as designing and sewing our own clothes using by hand sew only. My daughter is now in grade 6 and it is a good start to learn sewing. I am not good in sewing but at least I know the basic that I can use when it is badly needed.
Parents should teach their children to sew so that when the kids get old she or he has knowledge how to sew for their future family.
Thank you so much for reading my post today I hope to write more in the next few days about our other home steady journey with my kids.
How nice of you to teach your child sewing. Sewing is one of the most important skills a person must have. Your child is in good hands. Good evening.
Yes its true everyone should learn sewing even the basic sewing just in case you have no tailor around you.
Sewing is a skill anyone should have. At least the basics. I have to admit though, i did not enjoy it as a young kid, hehe
Lol same to you sis I do not enjoy sewing even until now but at least I know some basics .
Hi @antonette, I think that sewing is something that anyone should know, and it has many benefits for children, it can help them to develop concentration and exercise fine motor skills, it can also be a relaxing activity, good that they practice this activity at home.
Interesting and beautiful work. I didn't know they still taught sewing in schools. It is wonderful handwork and it looks like your daughter is very dedicated in what she does I think she did a beautiful job. Congratulations.
Thank you so much for appreciating my friend :) Yes I was also surprised that even in online class sewing was also taught to kids and I'm glad that its a part of their lesson.
Wow, this is really beautiful and lovely and also a good thought of you Teaching this kids how to sew I believe as Time goes on they will begin to understand how to do more of it and also help them to be more exposed to what they haven't known and seen before now. Thank you so much for this.
Take care of yourself and do have a nice day 😍😍.
