The child's room is decorated for the era 1865-1915. Until the late Victorian era, children's rooms were not decorated and filled with toys. When families had more time and money due to the Industrial Revolution, they began to set aside rooms filled with childhood treasures. The child's room at the Farm has a bed with a trundle underneath to accommodate several children. The blue and white quilt is from the same era, as is the red comforter, patterned with motifs from the Columbian Exposition of 1892. (James Ellsworth was the guiding force behind the event.) The schoolroom desk holds a collection of McGuffy Readers. The perambulator dates from the 1860's, as does the china head doll. Beside it is a Victorian cradle that, when wound, rocks a baby automatically. Children's clothing hangs from pegs, ands atop the shelf, there stands Kate Greenaway plate and a children's brown transfer tea set. The pictures on the walls are typical of those to be found in nurseries of the period.
