Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Finger Plays for Nursery and Kindergarten
What the child imitates, says Froebel, he begins to understand. Let him represent the ?ying Of birds and he enters partially into the life of birds. Let him imitate the rapid motion of fishes in the water and his sympathy with fishes is quickened. Let him reproduce the activities of farmer, miller and baker, and his eyes open to the meaning of their work. In one word let him re?ect in his play the varied aspects of life and his thought will begin to grapple with their significance.
