3. Trades/Farming • During the colonial times farmers grew most of there food • The animals were good for meat and milk • They also grew plants that would give them material for making clothing

4. Communication • Farmers didn’t communicate because they were always so busy working on the farm • The only time that they did communicate with other people was when they went to town to trade crops or animals • If they did need to tell someone something important they would have someone take the message to them because the farmers always had work to do

5. Family Life • The families in colonial times were always busy • They were always at work making sure every thing was right and that there was food on the table and a roof over there head • Once all the chores were finished they would have some fun as a family

The boys would go with there dad and hunt.
