Abstract

The article analyses own research and literature findings about correlation between work and
play. The research was conducted by using the following methods: ethnographic interviews with
Elk region citizens, analysis of diaries and autobiographies.
From a contemporary perspective, the author reaches for memories of people in various age.
They describe their childhood, when work was usually related with play and toys were handmade
by children and adults. These memories are presented as a continuation of theoretical presentation
of the topic in the first chapter of the article.
In traditional cultures adults had designated time for work, and for rest and celebration.
The memories show that children despite having work duties were able to play also during noncelebration
time and sometimes they perceived work as something fun to do. Such attitude is natural
for children. It is easier for them to go outside their everyday life and find some temporary activities.
Characteristic for folk culture recurrence is the reason that some annual customs has survived
and both children and adults participate in them. However everyday life of the authors of the
memories and also of other people has changed significantly, mainly due to modern technologies.
