The Handbook of Forgotten Skills

There was a time when childhood was filled with making, mending, building, and discovering.

The Handbook of Forgotten Skills invites a new generation back into those timeless experiences. Filled with beautifully illustrated, step-by-step lessons, it teaches practical skills that have quietly faded from everyday life—from tying knots and quilting to repairing a bicycle tire and other hands-on traditions worth passing on.

Whether shared during homeschool, read aloud together, or left within reach on the coffee table, this is a book that encourages curiosity, confidence, and the simple joy of learning with your hands.

Because some of the most valuable things we can pass to our children aren’t found on a screen—they’re learned beside us.
