Step back more than three hundred years to when life was much different.Imagine a time before the United States was a country.It is a period known as the Colonial Times.
It is a cold morning. You wake up before the sun rises.You have much work to do.Only some lucky children get to go to school.Most kids spend their days working beside their parents.
You begin the day by washing up in the washbasin and getting dressed.The water isn't hot unless your mother or father has already boiled some.
Then you light a lantern and walk outside to gather wood from the woodpile.This is your first chore of the day.
After you put the wood in the fireplace, a fire is lit to warm the house.Your mother uses the fire to cook breakfast.
You soon sit down to a big breakfast.You need it because you have a day of hard work ahead of you.
