If children were to young to work they were automatically sent to the crematory, or the gas chamber's. The crematory they would slaughter them, and than put the bodies in a furnace so they could cover up the fact that they killed them.

In the gas chambers, they would tell them they were going to take a shower, and the disguised shower heads would actually pour out toxic gas, to kill them either immediately or, let them suffer. Than the camp doctor's would experiment on them! As in, they would put injections in their eye's to try and change the eye color, and try to sew them together and make Siamese twins, this was there obsessions etc.

So, the life for these children would be terrible. & the life for the children that COULD work, sucked. they had no food, or anything. I hope this explained a lot.

Another aspect of being a child during the Holocaust was the constant fear - fear your friends would disappear, fear your family would, fear you would. Those that weren't rounded up and sent to camps lived in hiding or in ghettos where there wasn't enough to eat. Depending upon others to keep you safe made parents deeply sad and unhappy which the children understood.
