The Middle Ages (98) : Spoon kid

This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.

Kids could only play with simple utensils (like a wooden spoon) in an era without any toys.

In those medieval times, childhood was insignificant.
Children dependent on their parents until they were about 7 years old, thereafter their youth was past.

The practice of a youthful marriage was very common and many girls were already married at the age of…..14 years !

Photographed at medieval festival of castle Sterckshof (Deurne, Belgium)
