Mary Baker Eddy, the youngest of six children, grew up in rural New Hampshire. Like most families living in 19th-century New England,
the Bakers worked together on their farm, producing the food they ate and making the clothes they wore.
Experience a little of the Bakers’ daily life at this hands-on program for children ages 5 through 12. Learn more about the farm chores that occupied children in the 1800s and play some of their favorite games.
