Daily Life –Family Structure Nuclear Family: The father was responsible for the economic well-being of the family, and the mother supervised the household and cared for the upbringing of the children. Although Egyptian children had toys, . . . much of their time was spent preparing for adulthood. . . . Peasant children accompanied their parents into the fields; the male offspring of craftsmen often served as apprentices to their fathers. Privileged children sometimes received formal education to become scribes or army officers. Life in Ancient Egypt. http://www.carnegiemuseums.org/cmnh/exhibits/egypt/dailylife.htm
Daily Life - Furnishings(Simple in design) The most common piece of furniture was a low stool, used by all Egyptians including the pharaoh. These stools were made from wood, had leather or woven rush seats, and had three or four legs. Life in Ancient Egypt. http://www.carnegiemuseums.org/cmnh/exhibits/egypt/dailylife.htm

Games: Senet - a board game from ancient Egypt Board games were very common in ancient Egypt and people from all levels of society played them. Many game boards from ancient Egypt have been found by archaeologists. However, the rules explaining how to play these games have not survived. By studying game boards and other evidence, experts have made some educated guesses about how these games were played. The British Museum. Egyptian Life. http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/life/home.html
How to play Senet • Throw the sticks to see how many squares to move your piece forward. • If you throw a one, four, or six, you get an extra turn. • You can't land on one of your own pieces. • If you land on the other player's piece, you switch places with them. However, you can't switch with them if they have two or more pieces in a row. • If the other player has three or more pieces in a row, you can't pass them. • Some squares are ‘safe' squares and some are ‘danger' squares. You will learn what they are as you play. • The first player to get all of their pieces off the board wins the game. • The British Museum. Egyptian Life. http://www.ancientegypt.co.uk/life/home.html

“The standard Egyptian relief portrait, as it came to be established during the Old Kingdom, required each part of the body to be presented in strict proportion, with its essential aspect to the viewer (shoulders forward, head turned, legs sideways and striding). An icon of Egyptian art, anatomically impossible, it's also a strangely lifelike arrangement” Canon of Proportions

“Upper Egypt was the long, narrow strip of ancient Egypt located south of the Delta. This area is composed of four topographic zones: the Nile River, the floodplain, the low desert, and the high desert. Each of these zones was exploited differently by the ancient Egyptians.” • Lower Egypt was west of the delta and Upper Egypt. http://www.virtual-egypt.com/gallery/ gallery.cgi?action=view&link=_ Tours/Karnak&image=karnak_01.jpg&img=&tt=img
