Best Answer

As our children grew, the young boys learned how to fish, hunt, gather and work on small crafts. They also learned about the animals, the plant life, and that all Life is Sacred. They would learn from their parents and listen to the sacred stories from the Elders. For example, they learned respect for a rock, the water or the birds. They learned respect for each other. Young girls would learn how to collect shellfish, plant the crops, tan the animal hides, and make clothing. They also learned respect for all life. Both girls and boys learned the principals of working together as a People.

Children in the 1600s were guided and instructed in how to behave, by example as well as words. If a child misbehaved they would be reminded of it and possibly made to feel badly that they had offended someone.
