It develops and strengthens the child's imperfectly developed body through the varied activity furnished by the games and rhythmic exercises'. It furnishes adequate training for the hand and eye through its many forms of manual activity, and therefore lays the foundation for the manual training and art work of the grades.
It wakes the child up intellectually. Through the games, the con stant contact with objects, and the association with plant and animal life, his powers of attention, discrimination, and association are trained, and he develops the interests and gains the stock of mental images the grade work requires.
