Hello All!

I am a Yoga instructor and one of the classes I currently teach is children’s Yoga. As yoga is very intertwined with the earth, ecological stewardship and development…I would very much love to offer workshops and crafts involving SKIP or PEP. Is there one area here that lists all the “tasks” or requirements so that I can find things that are well aligned with 7-10 year olds? Does anyone have any experience with bringing these challenges to children?
Thank you so much!

Have a great day!
Georgia

There is the PEP BB Calculator (Google Sheets)

I like the direct links and the usability to find the BBs in a single file.

My suggestion would be to pick a few that might appeal to 7 to 10 years olds, such as gardening, food prep, and animal care.

Then look through the BB (Badge bits) for the ones that you feel the kids would be able to do.

Here are some I picked:

I am sorry one of the ones (or more) that I picked required a video so I am not sure that age group can make a video.

Those were just examples trying to give you an idea of things kids can do.

7-10yo's surprised me with how capable they are.  Kids are capable of taking a video.

Animal Care: most of Sand  https://permies.com/t/193970/pep-animal-care/PEP-Animal-Care-Sand-Badge
Food Prep and Preservation: Sand and Straw, though I'd be hesitant about the canning.  https://permies.com/wiki/102544/PEP-Badge-Food-Prep-Preservation
Community:  Several in Sand can be done in a group.  https://permies.com/wiki/pep-badge-community
Foraging:  Most of Sand  https://permies.com/wiki/108155/PEP-Badge-Foraging
Homesteading: A couple of the safety-focused chores. https://permies.com/wiki/108328/PEP-Badge-Homesteading
Natural Buiding: A few in Sand  https://permies.com/wiki/pep-badge-natural-building
Nest: Most of Sand and Straw  https://permies.com/wiki/pep-badge-natural-building
Textiles: About half of textiles https://permies.com/wiki/101129/PEP-Badge-Textiles
Tools: Bike repairs https://permies.com/wiki/99737/PEP-Badge-Tool-Care
