The book covers a range of themes including building attachment; family; community; cooking, gardening and constructing as tools for learning; and how painting, drawing, dancing, making music or building with blocks can lead to stronger literacy and maths comprehension. Froebel's key works and concepts are also introduced and tied to literacy and maths, these include Froebel's gifts, \u003ci\u003eMother\/ Family Songs, \u003c\/i\u003eplay and the kindergarten.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
