In Britain during the 1950s, 60s and 70s, childhood came with expectations — not reward charts, stickers, or praise, but responsibility.
Children didn’t “earn” chores. They weren’t asked how they felt about them.
They simply did them, because that was part of living in a household.
From making tea for adults and polishing school shoes, to carrying coal, running errands alone, babysitting siblings, scrubbing floors, and even buying cigarettes for parents, British children were trusted with tasks that would surprise — or shock — people today.
These chores weren’t framed as lessons or life skills. They were just normal.
A quiet way of learning responsibility, usefulness, and independence in post-war Britain.
In this video, we look back at the forgotten everyday chores British children were expected to do between the 1950s and 1970s — not to criticise or glorify them, but to remember how different childhood once felt.
If you grew up in Britain back then, these memories will feel instantly familiar.
If you didn’t, they may sound almost unbelievable.
