A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

We purpose in this book to suggest the development of the spirit of play rather than the development of games. Under spirit of play almost every waking moment of the childs life could be considered. To cover such ground is, of course, impossible; there are limits to knowledge, patience, and necessity. The first five chapters (P art I) deal with the way a child may play-educate his body, his mental life, his means of expression, and his ideals. The last four chapters (P art II) discuss the influence upon the childs life of his different surroundings home, nature, playground, institutions. An arrangement of plays under these headings will not result in lists which are mutually exclusive. The two parts necessarily cover the same ground, grouping the same plays into two classifications. In the first part they are arranged according to their similarity in response to some need of the child, in the second according to the circumstances in which they may arise. Even the material in the different chapters overlaps, especially in Part I. At the beginning of life, activity has but one expression ;it is only gradually that it becomes complex and capable of being differentiated into well-defined channels. Growth in one part of the organism necessitates change in all parts. A child cannot exercise his body without affecting in some way his mentality and morality. It is only possible in the various chapters to group games which seem to lay an emphasis on some particular aspect of play life.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Leopold is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. This means that we have checked every single page in every title, making it highly unlikely that any material imperfections – such as poor picture quality, blurred or missing text - remain. When our staff observed such imperfections in the original work, these have either been repaired, or the title has been excluded from the Leopold Classic Library catalogue. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, within the book we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work.
