What was life like for children in Nazi Germany?
•Education was controlled by the Nazis
•Children were taught about the greatness of Hitler e.g.. on his birthday they had to place flowers behind the pictures of Hitler at home and at school.
•
Primary Schools
•Children were taught fairy stories of Nazi knights who saved maidens from bad Russian gnomes. In maths the young child had to count the number of SS guards.
From birth children were told that the Germans were the master race.
•
Secondary school
•Teachers had to be Nazi members.
The secondary curriculum included biology, which emphasised the supremacy of the German race. In History Germans were taught how the Treaty of Versailles was unfair. In Maths questions included the area of a swastika.
What was life like for children in Nazi Germany?
Physical education
•This was especially important, the Nazis wanted boys to be fit so that they could be good soldiers and girls to be fit so that they could be healthy mothers.
The Hitler Youth
•An organisation that boys joined. Here they would go camping, do sports activities and be taught Hitler’s ideas.
The League of German Maidens
•Prepared girls for their role as housewives. They were taught how to do various household chores and went on weekend outings.
