Excerpt from Education by Plays and Games The study of which this book is a revision was begun at Clark University and published in the Pedagogical Seminary in 1894. Since then the writer has been in very intimate and almost constant touch with children. His interest in child play, awakened years ago and kept active by observation and personal contact with children in clubs, play schools, school playgrounds, and the home circle, has been encouraged by numberless requests from teachers for the little study pub lished ten years ago. Largely in response to these requests this revision has been undertaken. It is earnestly hoped that the book may help promote a wider and higher appreciation of play and of its value in education, and add somewhat to the sum of child happiness in the world. The discussion of the meaning of play, of the relation of play and work, and of the history and application of play to education is by no means full. It can scarcely do more than give the point of view. The discussion of the periods of childhood is a bare summary, but is sufficient, it is hoped, to make clear their relation to the Course of Plays and Games. Of the course itself it may be admitted that it is perhaps too condensed. The whole study is valuable, if at all, mainly for its suggestiveness.

Excerpt from Education Through Play When the author began this work, it was with the intention of treating the entire subject in a single volume, but as the book began to take shape, it became evident that the material in hand was too manifold to be treated satisfactorily in a book of the size that would be appreciated by the reading public.

Excerpt from Plays and Games for Indoors and Out: Rhythmic Activities Correlated With the Studies of the School Program In publishing these programs, the author wishes to acknowledge the inspiration, the wealth of suggestion, and the valuable criticism given this work by Miss Mari Ruef Hofer; the friendly interest of the officers and teachers of the Department of Physical Education, Teachers College, Columbia University; and of the officers and teachers of the Horace Mann School, where the actual work with the children was carried on. The work done by Dr. Rebecca Stoneroad, Director of Physical Education in the public schools of Washington, D.C., furnished some of the earliest suggestions for the work.

Excerpt from A Book of Song Games and Ball Games: Adapted for School Use But play, whether it concern children or adults, must maintain the essential characteristics of play, viz emancipation from the earnestness with regard to the end which is the mark of all true work. If one is work ing, it is for a conscious, practical aim, while real play, like pure art, ought to be its own aim. In Britain quite in contrast to what has been the case on the continent - games have always been highly appreciated; but I am doubtful if in Britain play has always remained play, and if the players themselves have not too often had a certain inclination to put into it a seriousness which has nothing to do with play as play. Where play exclusively for the sake of pleasure is changed into play for the sake of gaining a prize, ideal or material, where there are professionals in football as there are professionals in shoemaking, there is no longer play as it was originally; it has been altered into earnest work, and has become what is called sport. It is with Games, as it is with Educations. They comprehend, and necessarily must comprehend, some thing partly human, and partly national. From the History of Games we learn that the majority of games now used are very old. There are Ball, Stone, and Song Games, where the origin is lost in the night of the tales. I think that the expression a national game has to be understood less as a game which has its origin in the nation in question than as a game which has become a favourite game of that nation, and has been changed to suit its peculiar character. I think Miss Bremner has well understood this. She has understood that what can give pleasure to Swedish children may also give pleasure to English-speaking children, on con dition that it is properly adapted to them. May - I sincerely wish and hope so' - these games give pleasure to many, and at the same time serve as a means of Education. Man, adults as well as children, needs the one as well as the other, and perhaps most both united. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Play in Education And not only do we call the child's dearest interests by a name implying that they are of negligible importance, but we heighten the misunderstanding by (very properly) calling the same identical interests when they appear in grown people by a variety of high-sounding names, such as work, art, science, patriotism, idealism, genius, that we never think of applying to children's play. For the thing itself, even as it appears in grown people, we have no word, which if we had we might extend to the case of children and so help ourselves to an understanding of their lives.

Excerpt from Playing the Game: A Public-School Story When Mr. James Hythe decided to send his son and heir to St. Osyth's, it was with the avowed intention of making a gentleman of him. As it happened this was rendered unnecessary in the case of Hythe junior, since Nature had obligingly taken that part Of the business upon herself. Also, though one grieves to have to record it, the fact that he had been educated at a cheap middle class day-school did not cause him to exhibit any startling deficiency in mental acquire ments when contrasted with the youth of St. Osyth's, but rather the reverse. To look at, Reginald Taunton was just an ordinary boy, rather undersized, indeed, at this stage Of his career, the aforesaid day school having had misguided leanings towards the development of brains rather than muscle. But steady eyes and a rather remarkable chin saved his face now, ' and at all future time, from the charge of being commonplace.

Excerpt from Child Life in Music: A Collection of Plays, Dances and Games for Use in the Home Kindergarten and Primary Music is now recognized as an important element in education, and yet, we are only beginning to understand its value This education may be started at a very early period of the child's development. Long before he himself can play or sing, the love of music, for the best in music should be developed. This may be done by playing to him good simple arrangements of the music of the great masters. All through childhood this education may be carried oh, and after the child has begun to play or sing, advance work may be done, leading him to the originals of that which has been given to him in simple arrangements.

Excerpt from Sense-Plays and Number-Plays for the School and Nursery A system of educational apparatus simple or com plicated, but always conventional and formal, is being advocated by the followers of Madame Montessori as the best means of providing for the proper sense-training of children. It was invented in order to enable the teacher of a very large class to have at hand employment which the individual child could find for himself without much suggestion or interference from without. It has advantages presupposing a very large class and a large amount of imitativeness and docility on the part of the children, but to us in England it seems like a revival of the old 'gifts and Occupations of Froebel. The twentieth-century educator, like him of the nineteenth century, has sought to crystallize her ideas in a scheme with a particular apparatus based upon the scheme.
