Friedrich Froebel, the inventor of kindergarten, designed and crafted the world’s first educational toys, known as ''Froebel’s Gifts.'' This deceptively simple set of playthings changed how children think and interact with the world. By influencing Maria Montessori, Frank Lloyd Wright, Vassily Kandinsky, Albert Einstein, Paul Klee, and many more, Froebel’s gifts have had an immense impact on our world’s art, design, and education. In Making Classic Toys that Teach, this concept of hands-on learning comes full circle as Doug Stowe, a woodworker and teacher, outlines step-by-step instructions on how to build each toy, and the box to hold it. Now you can be a part of passing Froebel’s timeless lessons on to a new generation of young minds.
