Froebelian Theory

Froebelian Theory is an educational approach developed by Friedrich Froebel that emphasizes the importance of play, exploration, and hands-on activities in early childhood learning. It views children as naturally curious and capable learners who develop through active experiences rather than passive reception. The theory encourages learning through engaging with materials, nature, and social interaction, fostering creativity, independence, and holistic development. Froebel also introduced the concept of the "kindergarten," highlighting the vital role of early education in shaping a child's future growth and understanding of the world.
