Hello, my name is Alice. This is where I live.

This is the parlour. I am learning to play the piano. Mama likes to sew, or invite her friends over for afternoon tea.

This is where we eat our meals. We always say prayers before our meals. Freddy helps Jane carry the food up from the kitchen and serve it.

This is the kitchen where Cook makes our food. She cooks food on the range which Jane makes sure is always full of coal. The servants eat here. If we want something we ring a bell.

This is the scullery where Jane washes our clothes. Jane uses a dolly peg and washboard to scrub the clothes clean. Then she uses the mangle to squeeze out the water. She heats the iron on the range to iron our clothes.

This is the nursery where I sleep, play and learn. The governess teaches me and my sisters French, Geography, History and Arithmetic. My brothers go away to boarding school to learn.

This is how I keep clean. Jane and Freddy carry a tin bath up to the nursery, and cans full of hot water. I have a bath in front of the fire so I don't get cold. Would you like a bath like this?

I like to play. I like to rock on the rocking horse, play with my doll's house and read books. What do you like to play with?
