We got them from Scholastic Books, years ago.

"Sarah Morton's Day" and "Samuel Eaton's Day" are two great books from
Plimouth Plantation. I think they are available from Amazon also.  They show
children dressing and since the clothing is just like adults, it is very
useful for the reinactor and costumer.

Have a look at the Plimouth Plantation site: http://www.plimoth.org/

There are lots of photos of costumed interpreters to draw inspiration from.
They've done a good job with the research and the clothing from the time
period -- clothing worn by the settlers as opposed to the folks home in
London. Somewhere they used to have a section on the clothing, but they've
redone the site *again*, and I can't find it now.
