A life skill is something you need to get along in the world.
Lifeskills: Typing. Matching clothes. Driving. Learning to bank, and use a check book. Writing a letter. Reading. Learning to search with Google. Learning to use the card cataloge at the library. Getting along with your spouse. Learning to parent by positive reinforcement. Learning to mow grass. Learning to pot a plant. Learning to cook.
The list goes on and on. OH Yes, learning to sew on a button.
