Gee, I wish I was your daughter. My dad's idea of cirriculum was:

        Topic Lab Equipment
        Raking Leaves Rake
        Mowing Lawns Lawnmower
        Pulling Weeds Hands
        Killing woodland mammals Rifle
        Blasting avian creatures from sky Shotgun

I had to learn everything else on my own :)
