2. Farming and Trades. There is always work to be done from sun up to sun down. The chores where endless plowing, picking, planting, watering and others. This was backbreaking work. Now when you needed to plow you go get the tiller. When you need water you get the water hose and you don’t have to go pump it or find it.

3. Family Life The families in the colonial time were very close to one another not leaving to do much more other than trade. Families supported their selves making their own clothes, food, blankets. Today we still have a good relationship with our family all though we could spend more time with them, instead of friends.

4. Pastime / Hobby In the colonial days everyone was very busy, and little time for games and recreation. Children would play games to help them with skills like running, jumping and throwing. All of their games were made from things they had because there were no factories or stores that made toys. Today we have lots of factory made toys, most Americans do not play with any hand made toys. Today we have a little more time because we do not have to work in the field all day, instead we work for companies.
