Telephones Then and Now

Open to everyone until Friday, October 30

To keep it, print it while it is open.

Long ago, grandparents used big heavy phones with a round dial and a curly cord. Then phones lost their cords, and now many people carry a small phone with a screen in their pocket.

Examples

  • Ask a grandparent what their home telephone looked like when they were little.
  • Look at a phone at home today and see if it has buttons, a cord or a screen.
