Kindergarten: The Foundation for Life

We’re celebrating the beginning of a new school year by revisiting the kindergarten experience from the 1800s to the early 1900s. See photographs of children at work and at play in Philadelphia-area schools, and get a teacher's perspective with lesson plans and samples of arts and crafts activities.
