The Shoemaking Process
Did you know that until the turn of the 20th century, pretty much all shoes were made from hand? Whether made from wood, plant-based materials or the most common leather, each was handcrafted and sold from there. It’s hard to believe that this was the case, especially now that we live in the time of automation, but as the photo so beautifully illustrates, things were not always as simple back in the olden days.

Not Your Average Bus Ride To School
It can be easy to complain about having to take the bus to school twice a day. The next time one of your children mentions this, tell them about the Moderna river in Italy, which children had to cross to get to school back in 1959. As the photo suggests, they were roughing it in an entirely different way to American schoolchildren now. Just imagine if any of them had a fear of heights.
