"Children's Games" is a renowned oil-on-panel painting by the Flemish Renaissance artist Pieter Bruegel the Elder, created in 1559-1560. This masterpiece, housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria, offers a vivid tableau of the playful universe of children. Spanning approximately 118 cm by 161 cm, the painting meticulously depicts over 200 children engaged in more than 80 different games and activities, showcasing the artist's keen observation and detailed portrayal of 16th-century children's play.

Bruegel's work stands out for its comprehensive and encyclopedic representation of children's games, some of which are still recognizable and played today, while others have faded into obscurity. The artist's intention behind this detailed depiction remains a subject of scholarly debate. Some interpret the painting as a nostalgic homage to the innocence and imagination of childhood, while others view it as an allegorical commentary on the folly and trivial pursuits of adults, drawing parallels between the children's games and the 'games' adults play in society and politics.

"Children's Games" is celebrated for its dynamic composition, rich detail, and the way it captures the essence of childhood across different cultures and eras. Bruegel's meticulous attention to the nuances of children's interactions and the variety of activities portrayed makes this work a valuable document of social history, offering insights into the cultural practices, leisure activities, and societal values of the 16th century. Through this painting, Bruegel not only immortalizes the universal joy and creativity of children at play but also invites viewers to reflect on the broader implications of play and folly in human life.
