The paradise of childhood: a manual for self-instruction in Friedrich Froebel's educational principles, and a practical guide to kinder-gartners
A kindergarten teaching manual by Edward Wiebé, published by Milton Bradley in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1869, setting out Froebel's occupations for teachers and parents of young children. The plates are lithographed diagram sheets in single inks — blue, orange, brown — showing numbered folding, paper-weaving, stick-laying and pricking exercises that yield usable grids, tessellations and star motifs.
