Knight Coloring Page

Medieval knights wore full suits of armor made from steel or iron, weighing 45 to 55 pounds total. Surprisingly, well-made armor was surprisingly comfortable when properly fitted, distributing weight evenly across the body. Knights wore padded undergarments called gambesons beneath their armor for cushioning and sweat absorption during intense combat.

Chivalry was a code of conduct emphasizing honor, loyalty, courage, and protection of the weak. Knights swore oaths to uphold these values, though real knights didn't always follow them perfectly. This code influenced how medieval society viewed knights and shaped their reputation as noble warriors defending the realm.

Becoming a knight took many years. Boys from noble families started training around age seven as pages, then became squires at fourteen, serving a senior knight. They'd fight in battles and learn combat skills for years before finally being dubbed knights in a formal ceremony, often in their twenties.
