regular school course, these children
saw and plane wood and by means
of nails make all sorts of toys of real
use to them in their games. The
articles fashioned in this way are ex-
ceedingly simple in construction. To
make them the child must plane or
saw wood into given length or width
and then nail, without any effort at
joinery. the several pieces together.
A block of wood with strip nailed
to 1t becomes chair; handle and
a flat piece make a shovel; three
pieces similarly nailed make sled;
a handle. cross piece and some
nails for teeth give rake; pieces
saved from curtain pole mako
wheels for simple cart which really
goes, The children OF six and seven
years of age in the first grade take
an ordinary wooden box, cut windows
in it and finally build on the top Of 1t
a simple, slanting roof. which makes
of it complete playhouse. All of
these things are made without the
use Of knife.
1.-THE educational advantage of
teaching such little children to use
these TOOLS" says an instructor, lies
in the fact that only simple broad
muscular movements and adjustments
are needed by the child and that tan
gible results can be obtained which
are actually of value to the small
worker. When the child's work is
through he has something of value
to himself to show for it, because
the process always leads to some
concrete object. The motions of saw
ing, planning and hammering do not
require anything like the degree of
skill that the simplest use of knife
makes necessary. The saw can cut
only in one general direction, the
plane cannot shave off more than
certain thickness. In each of these
tools the child's hand grasps large
at given angle. In the case Of a
knife the child would have to hold
on to small handle and then. in ad-
dition to directing the general stroke
of the knife. pay minute attention to
:
the angle of the blade to the wood.
The slightest variation of angle of
this blade varies the cut. The knife
is made for all sorts of cutting.
curved, at an angle or straight, de.
pending entirely on the nicely of mus
cular adjustment of the user. Such
attention and skill are not to be ex-
pected of tiny fingers. and to attempt
to secure them is to lay burden on
the child, make impossible any en-
joyable products of his work, and to
substitute for exercise in broad, free
movements and broad muscular con-
troll minutiae of advanced muscular
action. The saw and the plane, with
their simple action, do not require.
for elementary results, the finely diff.
