i think your examples are actually fantastic. a home ec class where kids actually cook something is much better than just reading a bunch of recipes. a CPR class where you practice on a dummy is better than just watching a video on it.

fwiw i had the same experience with money that the article talks about. my parents tried to impart alot of wisdom on me but it hits different when you have actual money in the market and see it go down.
