Check out photographs picturing Soviet children in the kindergarten. The photographs were taken in December of the 1960s by American photographer Carl Mydans who worked for the Farm Security Administration and Life magazine.

Isn’t it called KindergARten and not KindergRAten?:)
Progressive socialism at it’s best.
Sadness in their eyes ….
What sadness? They are just children! Photographer probably asked them to be serious while posing or they just were shy.
Americans always think everyone was sad in the Soviet Union, just because they are conditioned to relate negative things to everything socialistic.
These are interesting pictures. Children manage to find happiness in almost everything.
Except apparently in these pictures.
They looked happy to me
