October Exhibit - Cradle

VERSION FOR THE VISUALLY LIMITED

Cradle (cradle, cradle) - hanging or floor, rocking bed for a small child (baby). The word cradle comes from the Old Russian verb to sway, which meant to rock, to rock. Zy?bka - in the East Slavic languages, the dialect or regional name of the cradle (bed suspended from the ceiling) for swinging infants.

The cradle is the first place outside the womb where a child stays permanently in the early years of life. Here he could stay until he could stand on his feet, up to two years, or until the next baby appeared in the family. Cradles in Rus' had various forms. In the 19th century, they were wooden frames lined with canvas and hung at the corners; bodywork (small box, basket), bent or woven from bast or birch bark on an eyelet, with a step for rocking; dugout, plank cradles, made of willow twigs; beds on round skids. The following design gained the greatest popularity: the shank was attached to the eyelet - a long flexible pole, which passed through the ring on the mat with one end, and rested against the wall or cut into it with the other. Usually the eyeglass was made of birch, which had the ability to bend well. Hanging the cradle from the ceiling was not accidental: warm air accumulated above, which provided heating for the baby. But this approach was also considered as protecting the child from evil spirits. The peasants drew a line between the floor and the ceiling. It was believed that the higher the child is, the closer he is to God, and in the lower part of the hut, under the floor, an evil spirit lived. When making a cradle, our ancestors paid much attention to the material from which the cradle was made. They avoided taking aspen from tree species, this tree was considered “unclean”. In order for the child to grow quickly, the cradle was made from species of fast-growing trees: willow, walnut, hawthorn. Pine shingles and linden bark could be used for manufacturing. A chip made of durable wood could last 200 years. The year of the child's birth was often carved on it. Such inscriptions can be found on museum exhibits up to six or more. If funds allowed, the unsteady was ordered to a good master with a good heart. He created the cradle with skill and blessing. Less wealthy people made cradles themselves. It was not customary to burn, destroy cradles, they were inherited. Mothers prepared an embroidered canopy on a shawl, which not only protected the child from flies and mosquitoes, but was also considered a talisman, protection from the evil eye. The fabric was selected beautiful, embroidered by hand and sheathed with lace. In a poor family, an old grandmother's sundress could become a canopy. Straw lay at the bottom of the swell, covered with rags or old clothes. In wealthy families, a featherbed for a baby stuffed with bird down was made. Various bright things were attached to the cradle - multi-colored shreds of fabric, painted spoons. Various ornaments were often cut out on the cradles: at the head - the sun, at the legs - a month and stars. Inside they put amulets designed to protect the child from diseases and the evil eye, crosses and icons, knives or combs. The main advantage of cradles was the possibility of hanging them not only in the house. When it was harvest time, a woman could take a cradle with her into the field and hang it on a tree.

Wealthy families hired nannies from poor peasants to “roll” their child. Usually these were girls of seven or eight years old, among whom there were “glorious nurses” - talented nannies who could quickly calm down an overplayed or capricious child. For poor peasants, a dried bull bladder with grain inside could serve as a rattle. Such a rattle made soft sounds, did not rattle. The nipple was made from a cow's horn, and a cow's nipple was pulled over it. Another version of the pacifier: bread soaked in sweet water was wrapped in a cloth. The lullaby period ended for the baby as soon as he was weaned, or when a new replenishment happened in the family. Breastfeeding continued for up to two years or more. Weaning a baby from a cozy unsteadiness was not an easy task. To do this, they resorted to various tricks: they dressed up the peasant with “Buka” in a sheepskin coat turned upside down with fur, attached a wash beard, and gave a stick in his hands. He ran into the room and, seizing the cradle, carried it away. And they explained to the surprised child: “Buka took the unsteady child into the forest to“ unsteady ”. Usually this approach worked flawlessly.

In general, the cradle was given great importance in the life of the family, because the cradle was not only practical. his child.

The cradle of the end of the 19th century can be seen in the exposition of the hut of a prosperous peasant in the museum of folk life "The House of Semyon Lozhkar".
