More About Hitler Youth

The Hitler Youth was made a long time ago. It was part of a group that did bad things. Many boys had to join, even if they did not want to. This group was not good for kids.

Today, we learn about this time to help us be kind. We want to make sure it does not happen again. Kids should be happy and free to choose.

It is important to know our past. We can learn from it to make a better world. We should be nice to each other and help one another.
