Children During World War I
The children of World War I had a rough life. World War I for children brought domestic clubs, evacuation plans and child labor. Life for children in World War I wasn’t pleasant or fun but at the end of the day it was worth it all.
Domestic clubs involved large numbers of children. Domestic clubs were for repairing gloves, socks and old clothes to keep the soldiers dry in the trenches. Children also prepared chocolate and tobacco boxes that were sent to war lines in Europe.
Evacuation plans were put in effect to keep children safe and out of harm's way. Toddlers under five were considered primary children and were sent with their mothers to safer zones in times of emergencies. Four million evacuees were estimated
