Book excerpt: Excerpt from Toy-Making in School and Home The girl takes pains to carry out her work (neatness is often the sole aim put before her), the boy finds methods. The girl hovers round the well-known place, the boy makes a bee-line to fresh fields. See how this affects reading: the girl still hankers after What K aty Did, What Katy Did Newt, while the boy of her age is reading Jules Verne or Ballantyne or Henty, or if there is open access to shelves in the Free Library near him, you see him finding books on Airships, Submarines, Carpentry, or Engineering. We started our voluntary classes with these ideas in mind, and at first allowed girls to choose an indoor occupation in the two winter terms instead of outdoor games. Many girls preferred games, but others chose Art or First Aid or Cookery or Handwork or Needlework. They had to work at least a term at the chosen occupation. We felt that the girls gained great benefit from the hobbies, not only in the additional happiness of working at what they enjoyed, but in an increase of freshness of mind for other work. This year we have gone still farther and have given each girl one period of voluntary work in addition to a whole afternoon for games or gardening; moreover, the four lowest forms have each one period of class work in toy-making yet even now the children say that the time is too Short. It is really amusing to see a change of classes in the woodwork-room the first class dare not and cannot stay a minute after the bell has rung, for the second class is in and already at work.

Any known object or to create new forms is of inestimable value. Most children have a natural and healthy tendency to receive and hold new impressions, but inefficient training generally neglects this faculty. An all-round education demands ample opportunity in school and house for creating plastic forms. The mere accumulation of abstract facts is an education decidedly insufficient.

Download or read book Making Tin Can Toys Classic Reprint written by Edward Thatcher and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Making Tin Can Toys Tin can toys were invented after a fruitless search of the toy shops for a large tin locomotive. I had a long can in my shop at home that I thought could be very easily worked up into a toy locomotive boiler by adding a few fittings, such as a piece of tin rolled up into the form of a smokestack. Part of a small can could be used for a steam dome, or I could use the top part of a certain tooth-powder can, the distributor top of which would look very much like a whistle. A cocoa tin came in very handy for a cab, and a. thumb-tack box served for a headlight. The wheels were: -made of can lids soldered together, and the toy locomotive was made, much to the joy of my very young son who has had it in constant service for over a year, and it is still good for many trips at the end of a string. I had always used tin cans for making such articles as water motors, glue pots, melting ladles, mooring buoys for model yachts, etc., but the locomotive was the first toy, made wholly from tin cans, that I had produced, and this suggested other toys. The steam roller was next made. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
