Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Girl From Vermont: The Story of a Vacation School Teacher The success of the playground movement in America surprises even the warm-hearted, hopeful friends of children who started it. Sentiment has been reenforced by utilitarianism until now the whole nation is beginning to find out that it pays to take care of the children. Juvenile courts are good, but playgrounds are better. The one is remedial, the other preventive. A reformed criminal is a credit to a community, but an unfallen citizen is a crown of rejoicing. Direct the energy of the child into proper channels, and the worst truant of the school becomes the explorer, the thief a successful merchant, the forward girl a loving mother, and the boy banging on your front door the leader of an orchestra. The playground movement is going to reform our schools. Playground work, on account of its adaptability, always holds the child. The schoolroom does not - witness the many unintellectual boys who leave school to go to work. The schoolroom ought to be made fascinating enough to retain the boys and girls till they are forced to leave it.
