In the birthplace of the Estonian national nursery school and long-time nursery school building, now the Song Celebration Museum, a new exhibition will be opened on 17 May 2024. It will give you a glimpse of the Tartu of bygone days by looking at the everyday life of the town\u2019s children from the end of the 19th century until the eve of the Second World War.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition focuses on early childhood, the life of preschoolers and how they grew up and explores the different aspects of childhood – families\u2019 living conditions, relationships with parents, upbringing principles and of course, the everyday life of young children: games and toys, clothing, leisure time activities, etc. The university town of Tartu was the centre of Estonian nationalism, voluntary association movement and education at the time and this also had an influence on the conditions in which the town\u2019s children grew up in, especially the promotion of child welfare, the establishment of the first nursery schools and orphanages, and the availability of medical care and maternal counselling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition offers a wonderful opportunity for both families and people interested in the history of Tartu to take a look at Tartu a century ago and discover the joys and challenges of childhood in the past, to reflect on how attitudes towards children have changed over time and what the background to this change has been. The theme of the exhibition is inspired by the artistic concept of the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024 – \u201cThe Arts of Survival\u201d. After all, being both a child and a parent is a form of art now and was a form of art a hundred years ago.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
