Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sunday Kindergarten Game Gift and Story: A Manual for Use in the Sunday, Schools and in the Home In placing The Sunday Kindergarten: Game, Gift and Story in this series of textbooks for the graded Sunday school, a few words of explanation seem necessary. To accomplish its purpose as a textbook it was necessary to make this volume in such a way that it would be easily adapted to varying conditions. Very few schools, relatively speaking, have as yet reached the stage of advancement where a trained kindergartner can be employed for the instruction of the children from three to six years of age. In the majority of schools this will always be impractical because no such persons are available in small communities. There are nevertheless many elements of the kindergarten helpful in themselves which can be appreciated and intelligently handled by those who are not trained kindergartners, provided directions are sufficiently explicit. The foundation of kindergarten education is no longer a mystery to the world in general. Periodical literature, the widespread interest in education on scientific principles, many books on child-study, have brought to the general public a point of view which coincides with the general principles of kindergarten work. For this reason, therefore, much work that has formerly been performed only by trained kindergartners can now be done by amateurs with some degree of success. To kindergartners, the present book may seem unnecessarily explicit and because of that feature to limit the natural free expression of the teacher's own personality. Such is not the intention. Those who are able to develop on sound principles lessons better adapted to the particular children under their charge, should use the lessons in this book only as a starting-point for their own thinking, not a programme.
