  1. Ancient Egypt By: Ashlyn

  2. Housing and Furniture in Egypt Homes in Ancient Egypt are brick. They are made out of sun dried mud and sometimes wood, but it was not very common. Egyptian noblemen had three areas; they are: a reception area, a hall and private quarters. The doors and windows had mats over them so that flies, dust and heat would not get in. The furniture in the house were wall hangings made out of leather and the floors were made out of tile. They also had oil lamps and other necessities. Sometimes Egyptian families had three rooms on their roofs so they could sleep there on hot summer nights. Town Houses were meant for businesses on the 1st floor. The 2nd and 3rd floors were family houses and most people on summer nights would sleep on the roofs.

  3. Housing and Furniture in Nova Scotia Houses in Nova Scotia are made out of brick with cement and wood. Instead of having 3 rooms we would have rooms like: bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens, etc. Our doors are made out of wood and the windows are made out of glass instead of rugs. Furniture in Nova Scotia aren’t just wall hangings and tiles, we have couches, televisions, beds, etc. Our floors aren’t just tiles, they could be carpet or wooden floors. Apartments had more than 3 floors and families don’t sleep on the roof because if it had more than four floors (or even less) they could fall off and hurt or kill themselves.

  4. Eat , Drink and be Merry Food in Egypt were cooked in a clay oven or over an open fire with wood as fuel, though it was uncommon. The food could be baked, boiled, stewed, fried, grilled or roasted. Beer was the most popular beverage and bread was an Egyptian diet. In the bread people used sesame seeds, honey, fruit, butter or herbs for flavor. They also ate dried fish and vegetables.

  5. Food in Canada Canada has really good food, it is not just candy and junk. The four food groups are: fruits and vegetables, meat and alternatives, grain and dairy. In these four food groups they are filled with vitamins and calcium. Lots of kids our age would eat day and night JUNK! That is not good; we have lots of good food that can also be: baked, boiled, stewed, fried, grilled or roasted. Once in a while you can eat junk, but probably only 2-3 each day. Foods that help are: carrots, because they are good for your eyes and broccoli, because they make you strong. For a diet, it is mostly salads and popular drinks are water, milk or juice and sometimes pop, but that is a JUNKY food.

  6. Marriage In Ancient Egypt, peasant girls would have to get married at the age of twelve, but the guys were quite a few years older. Girls with richer families married when they were older than 12 year old girls. The parents would arrange these weddings for the girls. A good fact to know is, “When an ordinary man had 1 wife, the king had several!” Another one is, “The wife would get an allowance from the husband and would maybe use for them!” In Nova Scotia, girls would get married at usually 19 or older because they would still be in school at age 12! Men would probably only have 1 wife because it might not be fair to the other wife and that could cause a divorce in which both people would want. These marriages are arranged by the couple and usually the family might also help.

  7. Egyptians Fun Entertainment What did Egyptians do for fun? They did a lot of things. Some things that they did were making cave drawings, doing drama and relaxing by the Nile river. Hobbies that they might have are fishing, boating, swimming, hunting and lots more! Festivals were held in Egypt to honor the Gods and a statue of the God was carried through the streets. Wealthy people would hire singers, acrobats, dancers and musicians for entertainment. They would also drink beer, wine and eat lots of food!

  8. Nova Scotia's Entertainment In Nova Scotia, we have a lot of different types of entertainment! There are video games, computers, televisions, etc. We play sports, have hobbies and have parades like the Christmas parade. We might think we have more entertainment than Egyptian kids and their parents but we don’t because we don’t know all their fun and games.

  9. Girls Stuff! ♫ Egyptian Girls ♫ Me Egyptian Girls wore their hair in pigtails and the women wore wigs made out of sheep wool and human hair. They would wear bracelets, earrings, armlets and anklets. Some kids and adults wore sandals while others would go barefoot. Mostly everyone in Egypt would wear make-up. They would put on perfumed oil made from flowers, wood, oil and fat. Girls at my age have all different hair styles and are all different colors. We also wear bracelets, earrings, armlets and anklets, but also necklaces. Girls would wear make-up like eye shadow, mascara, lip gloss and blush. Girls in Nova Scotia are similar to girls in Egypt.
