Victorian children often dipped matches in a mixture of sulfur and other chemicals to create striking surfaces for easy ignition. This practice was hazardous, as the materials used were toxic and could lead to health issues. Additionally, many children were employed in match factories, where they faced dangerous working conditions due to exposure to harmful substances like phosphorus. The use of such chemicals highlighted the exploitation and poor safety standards prevalent during the Victorian era.
