Examples of everyday life include clothing, furniture, household, kitchen and decorative items and a Victorian parlor. There is also a display of children's toys and games, plus numerous examples of recreation in the days before cars, television and computers. Trades represented are carpentry, printing, blacksmithing, shoemaking, farming, ice harvesting and toolmaking.
