It is pretty interesting to think about how much life has changed over the decades. Everything looks a whole lot different now than it did all throughout the early, mid, and late 1900s. With every passing decade comes some new inventions, new individuals, new trends, and so many more memories to look back on. Every decade is unique because of everything that can happen within those 10 years.

While looking back at the world's biggest events can be cool, it is sometimes even cooler to look at normal, everyday life in the past. Regular, everyday life has changed a lot, from fashion to recreational activities, to schooling, and so much more. Photos from all of life's moments can be found somewhere online.

Here, we have collected 27 photos featuring the normal moments life has to offer. These are just some notable moments from the everyday lives of Americans all throughout the 1900s.
