Many kids in the 19th century started working between the ages of 8 and 10. Their parents didn't let them play because this was not important to them. When the children weren't working they did chores around the house, many could even cook at the age of 10. Education, as said above, was not as important as making a living (no matter how young). When we talk about love, I think that kids then may have had a much greater respect for the small things; eating dinner with their family, cleaning house with their mother, food on the table, etc. Not like kids today who take that all for granted. They wore dresses, most with matching bonnets. I hope that I helped out a little.

parents didn't see a reason for children to play. they worked. working was more important than play. [now play is viewed as the most important thing]
education is bigger now than it was back then.
love has stayed the same.
back then kids were dressed up and now they dress in clothes they can play in.

hope i helped !
we did the same thing in my child development class haha
