We have had lots of fun this afternoon looking at different artefacts from the past. First we had a guess what we thought each object was for. We had lots of great ideas, with the hot water bottle being a piggy bank, the carpet beater a cane and a flat iron weights for excercising. Can you guess what the different items were for? We then talked about why we don’t have some of these objects now or how they might have changed.

The butter churn was used for turning milk and cream into butter.

Carpet beater is now a vacuum cleaner and I loved laughing at the answers that carpet beater was a Kane but poor children getting whacked with the Kane!
