Although there have always been children, the concept of "childhood" is more recent than many people think, with one French historian declaring that childhood didn't exist until the 17th century.

- Infant mortality in the Medieval era
- Medieval ideas of childhood
- Childhood in the Enlightenment
- John Locke's idea of childhood: a tabula rasa
- Jean-Jacques Rousseau's idea of childhood: innate and natural, guided by emotions
- The Romantics on childhood: a blissful innocence
- Childhood during the Industrial Revolution
- Working 68 hours a week in Victorian Britain
- The Victorians develop children's literature
