How Did Children Survive The Holocaust
During the Holocaust, 1.5 million children were killed when they arrived in cantankerous killing centers; killed immediately after birth, dying after not decorous medical experiments, dying from starvation and diseases. Many have survived because of the help of people or because of their own strength. Many innocent children had been involved in the Holocaust. Some had been on Kindertransports, some have died in camps, and some had been in orphanages. Children who were kept away from the Holocaust were called “Hidden Children”.

The four children were all musicians where Marion, the oldest, plays the piano, Uschi, a twin of Gisi, plays the cello, Gisi plays the violin, and George plays something with strings. Marion worked as a maid, like her mother, for a family in England. She found out her father lived in New York and joined her father after the war. She married and raised children while she and her siblings aspired to join bands. To go somewhere after the war, children were placed in orphanages or tried to find their families.

Most hidden children survived the Holocaust because of the help of British families or because of their own strength. Uninvolved children were going through tough parts of their life and had to suffer. Lots had died in medical experiments, diseases, starvation, or in concentration camps. Silent and secret, children survived. In summary, families that stick together will stay forever together and will commemorate the ones who have
