Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Frank In offering these little books to those kind mothers who attend to the early instruction of their children, the authors beg leave to prefix a few observations on early education which have occurred to them since the former parts of these books were published. We found, to our high gratifications, during a visit which we lately paid to England, that the attention of parents, in every rank of society, was turned to the early education of their children. Formerly a child was left, during the first eight or ten years, to chance, in every part of its education except its book and keeping its clothes clean - the mother or nursery-maid attended to the latter, for their own sakes - the father, remembering the praise that had been bestowed upon himself when he was a child, was anxious that his son should learn to read as soon as possible. The object was to cram children with certain commonplaces of knowledge, to furnish them with answers to ready-made questions, to prove that the teacher, whether parent, schoolmaster, or private tutor, had kept the pupil´s memory, at least, at hard work, and had confined his limbs and his mind for many hours in the day, to study. At present, the attention of parents is more extended; they endeavour to give their pupils reasonable motives for industry and application. They watch the tempers and dispositions of children; they endeavour to cultivate the general powers of the infant understanding, instead of labouring incessantly to make them reading, writing, and calculating machines. To assist them in these views, parents have now a number of excellent elementary books. Such a variety of these have of late years been published, that by a proper use of them, more general knowledge can be now acquired by a child, with two hours´ daily application, than could have been acquired, fifty years ago, by the constant labour of ten hours in the four-and-twenty.
