Seventeenth-century Netherlands is a time and place that inspires our imagination. This maritime country conjures up images of windmills and dikes, picturesque farms, bustling cities, and harbors filled with ships returning home from far-away lands, their holds packed with spices. The small country enjoyed vibrant economic growth and a remarkably tolerant society that welcomed people of all religious backgrounds. The enormous legacy of this period of the Dutch republic, which artists, writers, and poets celebrated as its Golden Age, has enriched all our lives. As historians search for a fuller understanding of its unique character, they continually return to the central role of the family. Children are an essential part of the story, because how they were raised and taught, how they played, and what they ate and drank offer fundamental insights into Dutch lives. The images in the book are organized around eight themes: Infancy; St. Nicholas: Bringer of Sweets and Toys; Celebrations and Music; Toys and Games; Animals as Pets and Companions; Inventing Fun, Games, and Mischief; Shopping for Food Treats; and Winter Activities: Outdoors. A recipe chapter provides inspiration for cooking projects, allowing children to prepare tastes of the past. Through words and images, we learn that while some pleasures enjoyed by Dutch youngsters 400 years ago have changed, some have remained the same and are sources of fun and excitement for children today.

Excerpt from A Day of Pleasure: A Simple Story for Young Children The grey dawn begins slowly to spread over earth and sky; the stars grow pale, and one by one disappear. The moon looks like a thin, round, white mist, and sinks towards the west, fading from sight as she sinks. A streak of bright crimson is seen in the east; the birds awake and sing joyously on hedge and tree. The crimson in the east grows brighter and beams with golden light; the morning breeze springs up, and rosy clouds float over the clear blue sky. The glorious sun rises over the green earth; the dew drops glitter on every leaf and every blade of grass and lake and stream and ocean reflect his flashing rays. Sheep and cattle can be seen feeding in the meadows and on the hill sides; the trees and woods throw long shadows on the ground. The sunbeams make the window panes of all the cottages and houses glance like diamonds, and dart in to wake the sleepers. There is one window into which a sunbeam peeps gently through roses and jasmines and quivering green leaves, and lights up a pretty room. First it tips with silver the harp that an angel holds then touches his wings and his face; then it shows pictures on the wall; now it reaches a small bed with white curtains, steals inside them and kisses a little sleeping boy. How fast asleep he is! There he lies with his head on the pillow breathing peacefully. He has rosy cheeks and curly hair, but his eyes are shut, so we cannot see them yet, and he does not feel the sunbeam nor hear the birds. The door opens softly. Who is it that comes in so silently in her white dress, with roses in her hand, and leans over the little sleeper with looks of tender love? It is his mother. She kisses his cheek fondly; she strokes his hair; she says, Bless you, my little darling, but he sleeps soundly still.
