Kids Games - yesterday and today ...

.. today Smiley'd like once a cultural and historical aspect of light ..;
.. as we used to play with us .. and what ..?

Already Pieter Bruegel had held the children's games in his image, and shown that Children often played together without a lot of toys ...
And later, the children did not have much .. as a straw sufficed if the mother was washing ... and you could conjure up the best soap bubbles cause .. was
But right toys it already, like the hobby horse or rocking horse and rocking

A treasure trove are the pictures by Ludwig Richter, the time from the mid-19th Century and before that in the picture held.

Whether in winter. where the snow man was built where you could have a snowball fight or go to the slide was ... had the opportunity to play with it forever.

Not so rosy, the opportunities for many, if offered at the Christmas market, the best toys .., often not enough money for such purchases ..

But the playing was always .. occasion, be it with the young dogs in the yard .. if the game of hide in the forest .., or home theater with the paper ..

.. and even gave the carousel already .. even if it had to first be pushed by hand ..

.. Na .. and inventive the children have always been ..., as Wilhelm Busch's Max und Moritz stories impressively portrays ...

As we went in the next generation already disciplined to ..

Well .. if the boy was always so demure with the hoop around is questionable ..
.. but it was the time when one also in Games and the toys already showed what they had ....

The rocking horse, the first toy train, the Palace of sheet metal and the steam engine to the mobile accessories ..., that was what ..

.. and if you still belonged to the class that could give children their first bike ... because it was one .. who!

Well .., all the working children had something not .. maybe a rag doll .. of the Grandma or a few building blocks ..

But a Springeseil or 'ne clothesline to tug of war was always ..

or played it, ".. who afraid of the black man." or buff ...

In the school primer "Happy Working .." of 1925, there are several images of how the children played at that time.

one was here ... well, special play makes fun if it happens with other children ...

Whether kite flying .., the Indians game .., on the improvised swing or the Märmelspielen ... always belonged to playmates ..

.. and was not a boy .. in the area, was also once played with his sister .. who are not usually interested in all the stuff like dolls or Sounds of ...

Na ... yes, there were boys with her teddy bear into the Took bed .. but otherwise the right boy included a toy train ..,

in the upper class as electric railway with many tracks and accessories ... and the less well-off as a simple engine for mounting, with two cars and a rail loop to which was then a train station built from cardboard.

Who then was able to give his children a pedal car belonged, but now even better for the society .. and when the friend was allowed to drive even a piece with the noble part ... eeeh .., that was what ..

with the turtle-doll, the doll then more natural and also more affordable for many ...

There was the realistic and open "leader car" a bit more expensive, but who had the might, proudly his soldiers before the "leaders" march to the parade can and if that was lanweilig bought himself a lot of storming and shooting soldiers and cannons überrolllt were then of the wind-up tin tanks.

It was not so long and it resulted in young people and the ground game by HJ .., learned hand grenades throwing (but still with a wooden dummy), and sometimes even small-bore shooting at enemy dummies ..




A few years later a new era ..

.. not without re sayings ...

Since it was already appears before you could buy the first electric model train, but then with the PIKO HO train then, the first model railroaders dreams are realized.

was now also the MIFA Children's bicycle has become affordable and with the Father, the first bike rides taken and later viewed the films with the narrow-P8 Projector .. was

dolls and other toys as it is not particularly abundant, but if so, in good quality ...

Well ... and were attracted to the fair still costumes, singing the old songs to the fun fair fun fair districts and the cock was whipped in every community fair to ...

... And then everything changed ...

The pictures were colorful and life ..., the toy which was now often from China, also ..

Now there is wipeable Maldecken .. (Previously we had had something for the slate)

.. There are color TV, or even implementing the popular Sandmänchen ..

.. you drive now for sledging in the Thuringian Forest .. or so ..

.. in summer you can even to the North Sea on vacation, where you can play nice as it used to on the Baltic Sea in the sand or in the mud ..

.. and you should be able to do a riding lesson at the riding ...

.. all things ... in which the meisst children had not even dreamed of before ..

(.. there's the fact was still not at all, at least not with us .. ;-))

... By the way ... even the smiley's were not so used to it ... and it's nice to be thanks to modern technology in the development of word and track picture ...

.. As I said before, the whole thing does not even great scientific claim, but entertaining, a little store from the old days from oblivion ...
