It has passed the experimental stage; it is no longer on trial for its life; and no longer humbly begging, hat in hand, for a place to lay its head. As an educational idea, it is a recognized part of the great system of child-training; and to say, in this year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and ninety-five, that one does not believe in the kindergarten is as if one said, I do not believe in electricity, or, I never saw much force in the law of gravitation. True, Froebel's ideas are often misinterpreted and misapplied; often espoused by ignorant and sentimental persons; often degraded in their practical application; true, the ideal kindergarten and the ideal kindergartner are seldom seen-(though they are worth traveling a thousand miles to see)-all this is true, and no one knows it better than we; but that a divine idea is wrongly used does not invalidate its divinity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45533465149591,"sku":"9781546649984","price":972.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781546649984.webp?v=1767111607","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/froebels-gifts-9781546649984","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
