Time Management
This is a way to get multiple things accomplished at once. First, I know many people work hard during the week and cannot wait till the weekend. A good way to spend with the family. If you think about this for a second, firewood is process and all ages can be involved. I know kids, especially little ones love to play with sticks if they can get a hold of them. So why not give them a task and let the pile of sticks build up in a certain location set by you. It will keep them occupied for some time and is fun.
Teenagers get to the point when they would like to explore things. I wanted to start using the equipment my dad used when I was in my early teens. A motorized chainsaw that could slice through wood like butter is what I wanted to use. The safety issues that involved using this type of machinery compared to an ax was very dangerous. There are safety courses which can be taken. Usually in every location with this type of work. If not, I have heard of people traveling to assist or teach people the basic fundamentals on safety and operations dealing with firewood.
Adults on the other hand, is our mentors. We all strive to have a mentor to follow. Learning is knowledge and knowledge is the key to success, someone once told me some time ago. Parents try and teach their kids from right or wrong. This is a good way to do something as a family. Spend that quality time needed from the many hours at work put in during the week. A way to get some exercise with the family as well and enjoy the warmth at winter time. It is what you make of it for that short time to have it be all worth it. If living in a small community, everyone can participate and help each other out. One hand washes the other.

There was a place you could go from here...and that is discuss what actually goes on in a safety course. Who offers them? What do they entail?
Keep watching those little things!
