Our Journey into the Past - The Thirteen Colonies and the American Revolution


Our experience recently at Riley's Farms was amazing! We were able to reenact the Colonial era lifestyle and partake in a mini American Revolution scenario! Complete fun!
Now, think about if you were to go back in time to live in this era. What do you think the challenges would be to be a part of a new world? Would you want to be a rebellion and partake in starting a new country or would you rather stay loyal to the country you were once from? How would you live your life during this time?

  2. I would rather stay loyal to my country because I do not want to take the risk of having to die if I go into war and take part in being a rebellion to fight for a new country.

  4. Weeeeell. It'd suck. I would be a rebel because probably I'd win and everyone else will be loyal (except Merissa ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°))

  5. The only change that would happen will be that I will be working while other people train to get ready for war.

  6. It would be very rough to live that lifestyle.I would be loyal because if i'm not loyal I would probably be killed.And it would be hard to do everything the soldiers tell me to do.

  7. i would be loloy so i would not be mean to the people who live in the land that i found. and i would not change the rules and be nice to the people that live in the land:3

  8. It would be hard because there is a lot of tasks. I would go to war and hope not to die. It would be hard not to die because in that time they did not have good weapons like we do now. I would be that one guy that tries to get out of the war by running back to where they started.

  9. I would stay loyal to the country I was from! Its stay loyal to your country or you know "DIE"!!

  10. I would like to live back then because now we have robots which scare me and there are electronics which I hate to look at everyday, it's really hard to stop. I would want to stay in the country I was born on because I would probably like all the things I get to do there. I think it would be hard to do things back then and I would hopefully live really peacefully and happily. ^-^

  11. I think life would be hard if I lived back then.I would turn against my country if they did something really bad to another country I wouldn't care if they did something to china thow. But if they didn't do nothing to another country I wouldn't go against my country.

  13. I would like to be loyal because then there would be no killing or other violence stuff. Living here would be hard because there's bad stuff happening. Its also hard living because you don't have money and your house isn't that big. If all this happened and be people tried to kill me then I would DEFINITELY not want to live here.

  14. It depends on what injustice is going on and who's doing what.

  15. I would rebel the king because people deserve there own religion and. The king is not being fair. He said that people should give soldier food and sleep during the time of war and peace. But overall I think that if i were to go back in time i think it would be hard work and a lot of fun at the same time. But that is just real world. In my imagination I summon bill cipher to destroy the world

  17. I would probally have a lot of challenges like trying to kill food and do farming but hate getting dirty so that would be a big challenge for me but I am very thankful that I do not have to do that!!!

  18. I would rather stay in my country because I would not want to die in war.And cause you would have to make your own house and to hut for your food so I would rather stay in country

  19. How would you live during this time??
    Well I am going to tell you how I will live first, I will be sacred and I will be facing lots of war and death. Next, I will really unprotected with lots of shooting and lot of bombs if there were even bombs at that time ??? I wonder if there were??? Then, I will not like it because it is not really a nice place because they just yell at you and the kind will kill you or you your self can put your family in danger with the king. Knowing that you did not have manners to him and in war you have to stand straight and say I Sir and you were not aloud to shoot unless they said.

  20. One day I was in my room living a normal life then I fell asleep and I went back in time when I lived in the 13 colonies I was terrified scared lots of mean people in school the good thing is that my parents were still the same they didn't know what happened either we all were scared but on the next day we bought a house and I started having fun their even in school we all learned what happened in the 13 colonies we even use different kind of ink instead of a pen we used feathers and I think they made there own ink but all you do is grab the feather then dip it into a cup that has the ink in there then you get some paper and and it worked just like a pen we learned so many thins there it was so much fun they might be mean but I still had fun there!!!!!!!!!!

  22. Life back then would have been hard but not so much nowadays.They had to go to court,they had to work etc.)So that's why I'm thankful for living at this time.

  23. I think that it would be hard to be in the situation because when we were baking the biscuits the lady told us that the soldiers made them cook, clean, and they also made people get off their beds so they can sleep on it. The lady showed us how to make butter out of milk. First you put a dowel in the can that the milk is in. Then you move it up and down, while you are doing that you are putting the dowel in the palms of your hands and rubbing it side to side. After that she showed us how to make flour, by getting a bowl that has seeds in it. You need to get a stick and crush it with it. It takes a really long time to do so.
