The significance of children’s clothing in the processes of child socialization is considered in the article. Symbolically illustrating age-related changes in a person’s life, clothes in Ukrainian traditional culture is known with a social function. According to the materials of the late 19th – mid to late 20th century, changes in a child’s clothing from birth to adolescence can be traced in the context of its involvement into social life. Children’s attire as a special phenomenon of traditional culture reflects a number of archaic ideas used in ritual actions with clothes. Having a practical function, the appearance of some components in the child’s wardrobe indicates a change in status and also has a symbolic, magical character. The system of ideas and practices in traditional children’s clothing of Ukrainians has combined both the necessary adaptation to the child’s physical growth and the acquisition of certain traits and qualities aimed at a successful future. The child’s age, performance of certain functions and status in the community are closely related to established standards of appearance. From the point of view of childhood, as a mirror of civilization, traditional children’s clothing is an important component for understanding the peculiarities of archaic Ukrainian society
