 I found it interesting that they decided to advertise electric appliances to children. I guess the idea would be that the kids would see how much easier this family lived with their new appliances, that they would go home and tell their moms and dads about it. I find it interesting because you would think that the key target audience would be the women of the home. -- Erin Madden
+Throughout chapter 6, Nye illustrates how the popularized of electricity impacted American households. Family's now had access to multiple types utilizes that they never had before. It was interesting to me to see not only how electricity changed the items in households, but also the social change that took place. Because homes no longer had to be designed around the fireplace, houses now had much more flexibility in their floorplans. Among other things this change impacted the way typical families interacted with each other. - Jack Sweetak
