Everybody had to work to survive that included children, servants, and family members. Men usually worked as artisans or farmers making goods like shoes, guns, candles, tinware, glassware, and all other staple crops or cash crops. Education was only for the Puritans since they believed everyone had to read The Bible. Boys usually attended school and then college. Not many boys went as far as college because only wealthy people could afford it and because it taught you how to become a minister or a lawyer.

How were middle colonies different from the new England colonies?

The biggest difference between the two regions is the soil composure. In New England you had a much rockier soil composure while in the Middle Colonies you had a much softer, fertile soil composure. Because of this farming in the New England colonies was very hard. Also becasue of the difference in soil composure there are different kinds of forests. In New England you have many more coniferous forests, because of the colder weather patterns and harder soil composition, in the Middle states forest are dominated by deciduos trees, or trees that loose their leaves in autumn. The climate in the New England colonies is much harsher also leading to short planting seasons for the Pilgrims. It was not an ideal location for a settlement -- the Pilgrims were actually shooting for Virginia, but a storm threw them off path and they ended up in what is today Provincetown, Cape Cod, MA
