how much did victorianchildren get payed for working as putters
In Victorian times, a spinning top typically cost a few pence, with prices varying based on size, material, and craftsmanship. Simple wooden tops could be purchased for as little as 1 to 3 pence, while more elaborate or decorative versions might cost more. These toys were popular among children and often handmade, reflecting the local craftsmanship of the era.
In Victorian times, the cost of sweets varied widely depending on the type and quality. Basic confections like boiled sweets could cost as little as a penny per ounce, while more elaborate treats, such as chocolates or marzipan, could be significantly more expensive, sometimes reaching several shillings. The rise of mass production in the late Victorian era made sweets more accessible, leading to a greater variety and lower prices for consumers. Overall, sweets were considered a luxury for many, but they became increasingly popular among the growing middle class.
Rocking horses are generally very cheap. However, there are some rocking horses that can cost over a thousand dollars or more.
