Children are vividly portrayed in “Edogesaku” and Ukiyoe. In this paper, I investigated children’s arts and sciences and various forms of entertainment through the Kokkeibon “Ukiyoburo”, which gives a glimpse of the ecology of various children who gather in public baths. As a result, it was found that children who appear accompanied by adults in Ukiyo-buro have typical patterns of parents and children according to age and gender. Specifically, the following can be pointed out. (1) The parental pattern is a mother who is enthusiastic about her daughter’s education and a father who is lenient to his daughter. (2) It can be seen that girls are more envious of mansion apprenticeship than Terakoya. (3) Through the arts and sciences that an 11-year-old girl does in one day, we can understand the types of lessons she received by gender and age. To summarize the above, the “Ukiyo-buro” is characterized by the fact that there are more mothers who put more effort into educating their daughters than their sons through ① boys and girls around the age of eight who attend a Terakoya and a daughter who served the mansion and ② the lesson of her 11-year-old daughter, who continues to study hard.
