Froebel's Gabe


Perhaps the world's most intricately conceived playthings invented by Frederick Froebel (Creator of Kindergarten), these materials appear deceptively simple, but represent a sophisticated approach to child development. Children explore mathematical and scientific concepts through direct manipulation of physical objects. As children build and experiment with blocks they develop richer ways of thinking about mathematical concepts such as number, size, and shape.

Benefits of Gabe:

-Establish spatial relationships and proceed to sensory and language training.

-Enhance creativity, cognitive thinking, social skills and teamwork.

-See remarkable qualities and innovative ideas that make each child unique when they have the opportunity to explore and create according to Froebel's method.

-Students learn by using their senses and through physical activities; they use inanimate objects to create art and learn through play

-Frank Lloyd Wright, a world famous American architect, credited his boyhood experiences with Froebel's Gabe as the foundation of his architecture
