Children in old photos show us the similarities and differences between their time and ours.
The differences will make you reflect on what their lives must have been like; we might notice that children were dressed just like adults, and if maybe more was expected of them. But the similarities will bring a smile to your face: a smile that is mirrored on the faces of children at play, often with friends, a favorite toy, or a pet.
