Excerpt from The Playground: April, 1929 Seeing the Play Life of Other Countries. - Dr. Sven Knudsen, originator of My Friend Abroad, who last year took 400 American boys to Denmark and brought sixty Danish lads to visit America, has completed arrangements for American educators to visit his home land and her neighbors. The Americans will enjoy the same privileges as did the boys in 1928, and will meet the Danish parents who entertained them. Of special interest to recreation workers will be the recreational activities in Denmark. Danish gymnastics have been made famous because of their democratic nature. Everybody takes part. Two of the People's Colleges will be opened so that members of Dr. Knudsen's party may enter them at any time, study all the proceedings, talk with teachers and students, and attend the classes. Typical Danish preparatory schools will also be accessible. There will be exhibitions of Danish gymnastics.
