"Kindren! zo gy met elkander, over deeze beeldjens prast" is a Dutch broadside print from the erven weduwe Cornelis Stichter, published between 1715 and 1813. Now in the Rijksmuseum, this wood-engraving depicts a series of small scenes of daily life and manual labor, each with a corresponding rhyme in Dutch. The print serves as an educational tool, emphasizing the importance of work and the different trades. Each vignette focuses on a particular job, such as a blacksmith, a carpenter, or a bricklayer, providing insight into the everyday lives of people in the 18th century. The simple, yet detailed imagery, coupled with the accompanying rhymes, made this print a popular form of education for young Dutch children.
