Bed Time Cough Give Good Medicines Mummy Pause Penicillin Pyjamas Spoonful
EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming print captures a tender moment between a young girl and her mother in the 1960s. The little girl, dressed in cozy pyjamas, obediently opens her mouth as her mummy carefully administers a spoonful of medicine. Despite the unpleasant taste, the good little girl bravely swallows it down during a pause from their bedtime story.
In an era before child-friendly flavors and easy-to-swallow capsules, taking medicine was often a dreaded experience for children. However, this historical image reminds us of the importance of medical care even in simpler times. The bottle of cough syrup on the bedside table serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of medical advancements such as penicillin.
The scene is both heartwarming and nostalgic, evoking memories of childhood rituals and parental care. It also highlights the trust and bond between parent and child when it comes to matters of health and well-being.
Mary Evans Picture Library has captured this timeless moment with sensitivity and authenticity, preserving a snapshot of family life from decades past. This print serves as a poignant reminder that sometimes even the smallest acts of love – like taking your medicine – can make all the difference in our health and happiness.
