I’ve been spending a few days at my son’s house to help with a few house projects: repairing some bathroom tile, replacing baseboards, and some painting. My six-year-old grandson has been there every step of the way to keep me company and help out a little. He’s good at measuring and getting me tools. And he loves going to Home Depot.
Our first shopping trip was for for the bathroom: tile, thin set, grout, trowel, and some backer board. He got to push the cart with everything else in it so I could load up the heavy board. The guy at the cash register let him scan all the items. He loaded everything in the van and brought everything in when we got home.
Today, we went back to get baseboard. I had to cut up some of the 16-foot boards so I could get them home. He was right there to hold the ends for me.
He really wanted to paint with me, but everything I had to do was up on the ladder today. I’ll save him a few spots to roll at his height tomorrow.
My wife sent him a tool belt and a few tools. He was outfitted and ready to go this morning. I asked, “Hey, you have a screwdriver there?”
“Which kind?” He held out a regular and Phillips.
“Can you measure along that wall for me?” He used his tape measure for that and a lot of other measurements throughout the day.
I’m blessed to have some time to spend with him.
Waite for it... 
Can you post some pics?
My Dad taught me, his youngest daughter, all those things also. I was blessed.
You are making wonderful memories for your grandson. What a blessing!
These are great skills to teach young people.
