Excerpt from Guide to the Foundation Desk: An Inspirational Device for Children It is an educational maxim that we learn to do by doing. The foundation desk sets children to work at delightful tasks and directs them so tactfully that what might otherwise be considered as work becomes in a large sense play. The exercises have been selected with great care; our aim has been to get an instant response from the Child heart and mind to those things which help to mold character, promote health, broaden perceptions and inculcate thrift. Besides all this, the foundation desk will prove a boon to parents who are often unable to find the right material to interest children and keep them busy and contented in the hours when school and study tasks are over. At such times natural inclinations of childhood frequently lead in directions which gravely concern parents; this desk and its equipment we believe will to a great degree solve the problem of idle hours. The order of presentation of articles in the guide follows almost exactly the order in which corresponding titles appear upon the large chart panels. The guide is to be used in connection with those panels, for in this book the panel suggestions are the basis Of all the descriptive material.
