Does there need to be an equivalent? I did a lot of that stuff too, but being honest tying a knot around a branch and a stick isn't really a valuable life skill that is hard to come by. Our parents probably thought things we did were a waste of time, and our grandparents would have thought a lot of the things their kids were doing were ridiculous.of course. but whats the equivalent for children these days? we used to build swings, dens, go-karts etc.. not saying we were all going to end up joiners and mechanics, but we were still learning as we were doing it.
Kids do woodwork at school, I don't think my kid's shitty attempts (and they are shitty) are any worse than mine when I was the same age tbh. I can do plenty of DIY around the house, given the sheer amount of youtube tutorials for all sorts of jobs now I probably try my hand at more than I would have been capable of a decade ago.
That's a good shout actually.Plenty of them could make a website or program relatively complex applications though.
