Excerpt from What and How: A Systematized Course of Hand Work, for Primary Grades, for Rural Schools, and for the Home
This book is intended to "bridge the gap" for the little child just entering school, in a way to make the change from the freedom of the home to the restraint of the schoolroom less abrupt and irksome than it might otherwise be, and to help the teacher arouse and hold his interest through things while he is learning to use books.
He cannot and should not "keep still," so let us keep him interestedly and profitably busy during this critical transition period.
The book will also be found helpful to the mother in the home, whose manifold duties often leave her little time to provide something worth while for little hands to do.
To the little children, their mothers and teachers this book is affectionately dedicated by the authors with the earnest hope it may accomplish that where unto it is sent.
