Training Little Children: Mothers Guiding Kindergarten Play
Mrs Janet W McKenzie urges mothers to begin kindergarten training at home through simple color, shape, and counting games. She suggests practical activities using common household items, crayons, strings, toothpicks, and magazine pictures to foster color recognition, form, symmetry, and social play. The piece emphasizes maternal involvement, Froebelian play, and the value of accessible materials to nurture a child’s character and personality.
