摘要：Research conducted in the villages of the Požega basin and the use of sparse written records enabled me to learn more about a neglected segment of traditional life. It encompasses traditional material, spiritual and social culture in the villages around Požega in the late 19th and early 20th century. The world of children was dealt with through a number of themes: pregnancy and customs related to childbirth, confinement, baptism, first children's clothes, furniture and toys, the growing-up process through various games, counting rhymes and participation in the annual customs of their environment. The theme of children's culture was presented at the exhibition "The World of Children" staged by City Museum of Požega from December 10 to 17, 2001. This paper is the adapted text from the exhibition catalogue.
