24. I've tried to do the same with my daughters. They're involved in a lot of repairs.

That includes basic "handyman" type stuff like fixing a toilet flush valve or a broken door frame and changing lights on the cars and checking the fluid levels. They're also all quite proficient at building and lighting a fire in our pit, cooking, and know more about gardening than many seasoned veterans of the art. We started them from the earliest appropriate days. That's how humans and many other species have survived and advanced over the years and they're not going to get that stuff from a television or video games.
