Life in the Middle Ages.
The Middle Ages lasted from about 400-1500 AD. Life was not easy for people during
these years. They worked in the fields from the moment the sun came up to the moment it went
down. They were out in the cold snow of winter and the hot sun of summer. They gave half of
what they grew to the owner of the land.
Most people lived in villages and each village usually had from 10 to 60 families.
Families lived in tiny wooden houses with all their animals, which meant that floors were very
dirty. A fire for cooking was always burning in the house and there was a hole in the roof to let
the smoke out People didn't have a lot of furniture apart from a table and a simple bed
The village was the centre of the world in the Middle Ages. People stayed close to home
and didn't travel far because they were afraid of strangers. Life wasn't all bad in the Middle
Ages, however. People didn't work on Sundays and often gathered together to eat, drink and
enjoy themselves. There were many holidays and most people actually only worked for 260
days of a year – that's about the same amount as we do today!
