∙ 9y agoMost people in Colonial Delaware lived on farms outside of a main town. Children were schooled at home, and the women took care of the cooking and cleaning. They also made much of the clothing for the family and milked the cows. The men raised crops and farm animals and both the men and women helped when it came time to harvest the crops and slaughter and smoke the animals for food. In the evening, families played games or sang and played musical instruments, if they had them.
