>>327916>-Basic shelters (a frame and lea-to's)No to this one. "Hey kids! Let's fuck up everything around us to make something that sets back this entire wilderness space for the next twenty years, because your parents are too cheap to spend thirty dollars at walmart!"
>-water purification & gathering (leaf bag, cup in ground)No to this one, unless it's "now take the iodine tablet and drop it in." Do you really wanna be at fault for some 12 year old shitting his pants to death?
>-friction fire starting (boring as fuck to little kids tho)Yes to this one. Boring and, frankly, totally useless.
>-basic arrowhead/ stone tool makingTeach pre-teen boys to make weapons. Sure thing anon--that's a super-good idea. I'm sure the parents will be clamouring to get you hired back.
Dude, just take them fishing. No to anything that, if they do wrong, can make them die. This leaves out teaching them which plants are ok to eat by example, anything at all to do with mushrooms, making weapons, trying to purify water with anything that isn't boiling or iodine, and also trying to teach them how to wrestle alligators and/or bears.
