Froebel gathered diffused thought and practice into a system, but he did a greater thing than this. He raised an altar to the enthusiasm of childhood upon which the flame has never since gone out. —Charlotte Mason Froebel's method is a radical change of direction. It changes the educator's point of view. Instead of looking down upon the child, the kindergarten teacher must clear her mind of foregone arbitrary conclusions, and humbly look up to the innocent soul. —Elizabeth Peabody I was equipped, in fact armed, with the Froebel-kindergarten education I had received as a child from my mother. —Frank Lloyd Wright
