I have endeavored to write, for mothers and dear little children, a
few simple stories, embodying some of the truths of Froebel's
Mother Play.The Mother Play is such a vast treasure house of Truth,
that each one who seeks among its stores may bring to light some
gem; and though, perhaps, I have missed its diamonds and rubies, I
trust my string of pearls may find acceptance with some mother who
is trying to live with her children.I have written my own mottoes,
with a few exceptions, that I might emphasize the particular lesson
which I endeavor to teach in the story; for every motto in the
Mother Play comprehends so much that it is impossible to use the
whole for a single subject. From "The Bridge" for instance, which
is replete with lessons, I have taken only one, -for the story of
the "Little Traveler."Most of these stories have been told and
retold to little children, and are surrounded, in my eyes, by a
halo of listening faces."Mrs. Tabby Gray" is founded on a true
story of a favorite cat. "The Journey" is a new version of the old
Stage Coach game, much loved by our grandmothers; and I am indebted
to some old story, read in childhood, for the suggestion of "Dust
Under the Rug," which was a successful experiment in a kindergarten
to test the possibility of interesting little children in a story
after the order of Grimm, with the wicked stepmother and her
violent daughter eradicated.Elizabeth Peabody says we are all free
to look out of each other's windows; and so I place mine at the
service of all who care to see what its tiny panes command.MAUD
