Recommended for grades K - 12

In the 1800s, cookstoves were the latest in high-tech home appliances. See how the Industrial Revolution found its way into America’s kitchens, utterly transforming daily life. Managing a wood stove took new skills and knowledge, from selecting wood to kindling a fire in the firebox and making use of varying temperature zones. Learn and use these techniques as you prepare a Victorian-era recipe on a cast-iron cookstove. Then search the museum's historic homes for the new inventions of the Industrial Age.
