Unhappy with the Church of England‚ the Puritans traveled all the way to the New World to create a society based solely on their religion.

Puritan childhood was far from perfect. Childhood was looked at in negative terms during the 16th century. Young children were viewed as animalistic‚ not able to speak‚ impulsive‚ and unformed (Mintz‚ 2004). Puritans didn’t believe in childhood as being a time to indulge in play and leisure (Mintz‚ 2004). Play was viewed as a “sinful waiste of time” (Mintz‚ 2004). It was a time where Puritan children were to be prepared for the adult world of work and salvation (Mintz‚ 2004). Puritan childhood was
