Then and Now
Pairs the way a thing used to be done with the way it is done today. It opens conversation rather than closing it with an answer.
Then and Now
Pairs the way a thing used to be done with the way it is done today. It opens conversation rather than closing it with an answer.
How we used to, how we do now
Read a pair, then ask which one they would rather have.
| Then | Now |
|---|---|
| A phone on the kitchen wall with a long cord | A phone in a pocket |
| Sheets dried on a line in the yard | Sheets in a tumble dryer |
| Coffee perked on the stove | Coffee from a pod |
| A letter written out and mailed | A message typed with a thumb |
| Ice delivered to the door | Ice made in the door |
| A map unfolded on the seat | A voice telling you when to turn |
| The whole family watching one program | Everyone watching something different |
| Shoes taken to be resoled | New shoes ordered |
