Friedrich Froebel, the founder of the kindergarten system, saw the school as a garden and the teacher as a gardener.
He believed that children grow and learn naturally like plants, when nurtured in the right environment.
The teacher’s role is to guide, care for, and support the child’s growth with love and patience.
This idea promotes learning through play, nature, and hands-on activities.
Froebel’s philosophy remains a foundation of early childhood education today.
