First published in 1906, ¿School Gardening for Little Children¿ is a wonderful guide to teaching children all about nature. It is based on the idea that, as all things derive from nature, nature should be the starting point for the majority of instruction. Full of interesting ideas and helpful photographs and tables, this timeless handbook is ideal for both parents and teachers alike. Contents include: ¿A Pleas for Nature Teaching as the Basis for all Education and Instruction¿, ¿Nature Teaching Primarily the Means for Awakening and Fostering a Love of the Things of Nature¿, ¿The Digging up of a Portion of a Newly Asphalted Playground for the Making of a School Garden¿, ¿The Planning of this Garden¿, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on the history of gardening.
