This book considers the origins of Froebelian early childhood
education providing context to the development of his theories and
ideas, critically examines the key themes of this philosophy of
education and explores the relevance of Froebelian practice today.
Tina Bruce reflects on central aspects of Froebelian philosophy of
education: the importance of family, highly trained teachers,
engagement with nature, mother songs, movement games, play and
self-activity of the child, the whole child and the Froebelian
concept of unity. In exploring each element Bruce considers the
implications for Froebelian practice and research today, and
addresses the views of critics and supporters, Each aspect is
considered within an international context, drawing on research and
practice from across the world. The final chapter gathers together
the next steps for Froebelian early childhood education, providing
navigational tools and suggestions for what needs to be addressed
if Froebel is to remain useful to future practitioners, researchers
and policy makers.
