Chickens cluck in the courtyards, bakers slide warm loaves of bread into clay ovens, and kids dash barefoot through the twisty streets, just like you saw before in Chapter 1 with the busy, noisy streets of early Rome. Early Rome was busy, noisy, and a little stinky-but for Roman families, it was simply home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you were a Roman kid, your day might start with bread dipped in sweet honey, just like we saw earlier with Roman food in Chapter 1. Some kids went off to school (if their parents could pay for it), scratching letters into wax tablets while teachers spoke in Latin. Other kids stayed home to help-feeding goats, carrying water, or selling figs at the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt first, Roman families lived in simple huts, . But as the city grew, so did the houses. Rich families had big villas with sunny courtyards. Poorer families had to squeeze into tall, crowded apartment buildings called insulae. Imagine sharing one noisy building with dozens of neighbors, squeaky stairs, and smoky cooking fires-it was kind of like the very first apartment complex!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd that's not all!
