Children living in Germany during the Second World War were exposed to the full force of Nazi Propaganda. This propaganda was aimed to turn the children’s thoughts and action from the family to the Nazi ideology. Hitler and his officials all took the time with the propaganda to ensure it was going to sway these children. The propaganda worked so well that after the war the Allied powers had to come into Germany to re-educate the youth to ensure that twenty years later the Third World War would not happen.
