The Nursery School (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from The Nursery School
This book was written in response to a desire expressed by many people in every part of the country for some help or guidance in the starting of Nursery-Schools.
The need for a book on this subject is certainly urgent. Not merely a few children, here and there, but hundreds of thousands are in dire need of education or nurture in the first years. For lack of it all the rest of life is clouded and weakened. The fate of vast numbers of little children given over to all the dangers and horrors of the streets, and in homes where no real nurture is possible, was brought very forcibly before us this autumn, when after a holiday we found that one-third of all our nursery children were diseased, and obliged to spend a week at the clinic ere they could come back to our school. We set about the treatment and restoration of the few. This book was written in order to urge the nation to set vigorously about the salvation of the many.
Nursery-Schools, we are often told, are in the experimental stage.
