Important homemaking skills that aren’t cooking, baking, or sewing:

First Aid and CPR (for adult, child, and infant)

This is especially good if you plan to live out in the country away from most modern conveniences! We want to make sure we’re well equipped to care for our family if something really bad happens. My personal goal is to get First Aid and CPR certifications within the next couple of years.

Foraging

Learn your local wild flora and get to finding wild, nutritious, tasty treats for your family. This is a really fun one too and there’s tons of apps to help you identify plants. I personally use Picture This as well as the numerous articles online to help me.

Cheesemaking

This is sort of in the cooking realm, but highly overlooked. People tend to find it intimidating, but a lot of cheeses are simple with the right equipment. This is especially good if you want a dairy cow in the future. Start out with a simple mozzarella recipe and you’ll be on your way!

Water purification

This one I’m still in the process of learning about, but if worst came to worst, water is the most important resource to have. There are all sorts of different water purification systems to look into and you can kind of drag yourself down a rabbit hole.

Canning

A very common one, but still very important. There’s tons of resources on it! Your grandma might even know a thing or two.

Gardening

Whether it’s pretty flowers or an entire vegetable garden you want to grow, homemakers should know the basics of growing our little green friends.

Conversational/social graces

My husband works in a job where he needs to impress powerful people. Part of that is bringing me along to lunches and dinners where I get all dolled up. By smiling, being polite, and reflecting well on my husband, these men gain a major respect for him. And speaking as a naturally very shy person, most people love to hear themselves talk, so most the time a good smile and nod is all you need in a conversation.

Home decor

Learn what you like in a home. Make your home a place you actually want to be. Be idealistic and plan your home out to be a beautiful, warm safe space for all who come in.

Manners

There’s a time and a place for messiness, but there is also a time for calm. Learn some old style manners. It gives off a level of charm rarely seen today.

Feel free to reply with more skills that are important to homemaking! Homemaking is a dying art with so many different aspects and skills associated. Some skills are needed in some families and others aren’t at all! Find what works best for your family as we all learn homemaking together 💕💕
