Family Life The Sioux children played wherever they wanted. Mothers and grandmothers taught girls how to make clothes. Boys learned skills that helped them to become good warriors and hunters.
Society • The Sioux are divided into seven bands, which speak Dakota, Nakota, or Lakota. • These Seven Council fires ( Oceti Sackowin). • They unite the Dakota, Lakota, and Nokota.
