Leisure
In the early 1800's, fashion magazines were making their appearances. There were magazines for both men and women. Godey's Lady's Book was a fashion magazine for women, and Burton's Gentleman's Magazine for the men. Now men and women could see the latest fashions in the comfort of their own homes.
Wealthier families started celebrating their children's birthdays around this time, too. Children would beg to be invited. At pharmacies, soft drinks came out to play.
Leisure time was growing, being considered very important. Many activities became popular, such as horse racing and baseball.
Tom and company liked to go swimming for fun and go dig up treasure. Tom went away to play pirates on an island for a week once, and commonly plays Robin Hood with his merry friends.
Horse racing and baseball are still popular today, as well as other sports and video games. Video games have become ever-so-popular in the 21st century, and football is one of the most watched sports in America.
