Growing Up

• Friedrich Wilhelm August Froebel was born on
  April 21, 1782, and died on June 21, 1852. He was
  the youngest of a number of brothers. His mother
  died when he was only a child and he was left
  with his father, who was a preacher. Johannes
  Froebel, his father, was the Lutheran pastor of
  his own church. They lived in a village named
  Oberweissbach.

Becoming An Adult


The Giclee printing process delivers a fine stream of ink resulting in vivid, pure color and exceptional detail that is suitable for museum or gallery display. This art print is produced on a heavy 310 gsm, acid-free and watercolor textured paper.

• The village were he lived became the place where
  Froebel would begin to feel a deep, mystical
  connection with nature, which influenced him for
  his entire life. He studied mineralogy in Jena
  and directed the stone and gem collection of
  Berlin's Humboldt University. He was unswerving
  in his conviction that all creatures and nature
  were inexplicably, yet completely and spiritually
  connected. This became the basis of philosophy of
  Universaler Einklang, or Universal Harmony.

Education

• He took in the children of his deceased brothers.
  He prevailed the idea that children should be
  seen and not heard , even though his idea was
  incorrect. He thought that the children carried
  in them the seed of self-development, which
  encouraged adults.

KINDERGARTEN

• Friedrich Froebel changed the way we think about
  early childhood education. He designed balls,
  wooden blocks, tiles, sticks and rings to
  demonstrate that children learn by playing. Known
  around the world as the Froebel Gifts or Gaben,
  these objects were an important part of his
  Kindergarten. The Froebel Gifts have been widely
  imitated and adapted by educators and toys
  makers.
