Description
Tudor Children by Nicholas Orme is a rich and engaging history of childhood in Tudor England. This beautifully illustrated account explores all aspects of children's experiences, from birth to adolescence, revealing how social status influenced every aspect of their lives. Orme delves into the games children played, such as Blind Man's Bluff and Mumble-the-Peg, and the songs they sang, like "Three Blind Mice" and "Jack Boy, Ho Boy". He also examines the food they ate, the clothes they wore, and the education they received. Although childhood could be challenging and hazardous, it was also a time of learning and development. By looking at the lives of Tudor children, we can gain a deeper understanding of this era as a whole.
