Original Description:

How much time do you spend at your computer? How about listening to CDs or the radio? Watching TV? When was the last time you used a microwave oven?

Try to imagine going through a day without these items. They all make use of technologies developed in the 20th century.

This activity lets you go back through the century to find out when everyday items such as these first appeared in homes.
