Froebel Institute

The Froebel Institute, founded by Friedrich Froebel in the 19th century, is an educational approach that emphasizes the importance of play in early childhood development. It promotes a hands-on, experiential learning environment where children can explore and discover through activities like gardening, singing, and crafting. The institute advocates for the idea that children learn best when engaged in creative play, which nurtures their social, emotional, and cognitive skills. This philosophy has influenced modern early childhood education, emphasizing the role of nurturing educators and the significance of learning through interaction with the environment.
