Most Egyptian children went to school when they were eight. There were sports for boys only, which was not much fun for girls. Egyptians liked music and most children learned to play an instrument. Egyptian houses did not have as much furniture as our houses. The furniture was usually made of wood, but rich people decorated their furniture with gold and ivory. Eygptians got milk and meat from goats and they ate a lot of fish. They sweetened their with honey.
