Children helped with farming, crops, animals, and younger children, in the peasant society. Children in the town helped work as apprentices for their father with his job. Noble girls were taught by their mothers how to grow up like a noblewoman. Children in the least important society had chores everyday. I think children right now are lucky if they don't have to work. But we still have chores today.
Older children(about 10 yrs) had to take care of the younger children. Most children didn't live because of disease, but some did. after working kids would play with each other. They have lots of games we have now, like hopscotch and leapfrog. Children of the Noble work on the job the father has. The girls would were taught to be a housewife and learn to care for the family. I think we are very lucky that we don't have to always follow our fathers job and the women can have their own business.
that seems like a lot of work for one kid and how you have to follow the same you parents had.
ReplyDeleteWOW! I can't belive the children had to do a lot of work that the parents had to do too!
