Excerpt from Teaching in the Home: A Handbook for Intensive Fertilization of the Child Mind for Instructors of Young Children After a good deal of travail of soul I have attempted to do just that; in fact, I have done more. I have tried to tell substantially what I did do and what I still do, whenever I have the opportunity to direct the instruction of lit tle children. If it sometimes seems blind to you, or halting in meaning, you will under stand that this arises from the necessary limi tations of the case. We do many things With out knowing that We are doing them, and con vey a great deal by our attitudes and our in clinations, either for or against, any given sub ject. This of course cannot be conveyed in a book nor is it desirable that it should be. But in so far as I am able to tell what I have ao tually done with little children, this book tells the story. I have tried not to preach and when I seem to be preaching, you will under stand that I am merely making a zealous ef fort to make you feel as I feel myself.
