Travelers Safety S«rv(oa V Care For Tiny Tote •• • The recent war, when many mothers were employed, brought into prominence the importance of good nursery schools, although such institutions had existed for many years. There is still no lessening of. the need for juch schools, according to a health talk issued by the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical society. Interest in good health and hygienic surroundings for the growing child becomes more manifest as increasing emphasis is placed on health education. Once the child enters school, the responsibility of molding the mind and character falls heavily on the teacher. But, as in many instances where mothers are working," the very young dhild is frequently left to the management of an older child or a neighbor whose chief interest is not maternal. Thus the importance of a good nursery school looms high on the horizon of a growing child. A nursery school is a day school whose program and environment are planned to stimulate learning and development of children too young to go to kindergarten. Essentially it does not differ from a kindergarten because parents, nursery school and kindergarten teachers alike strive for the children's growth and health, intellectual development and the • formation of wholesale attitudes, as well as ability to get along with other people. In nursery school, children are taught simple things, such as manipulation of objects to become familiar with their properties, learning for example, the (hardness of wood, the range of colors in paints and the feel and shaping of clay. Most kindergarten children have finished experimenting with these substances and are utilizing them to carry out purposes. While there is much overlapping of interests, skills and materials, tihere is no distinct line between a nursery school and kindergarten. The chief differences are within the children themselves. Paints, clay, blocks or other materials are used to encourage the creative instinct in > the child and to such an advantage that they do not bore the child. The child is taught to develop attitudes toward his own body and bodily functions, lliua, when the nursery school child advances to kindergarten or to the first grade an excellent foundation has been laid for social adjustment and mental development. Age four has been determined as the proper age for a child to be taken from the home and placed in school1. A nursery school protects the ehiMTs health and provides equipment and play materials that help a child's whole body and whole self to grow and ( develop. . Other deal with the; character and skill of the teachers in understanding the growing child. Parents are considered as well as the children because of the unity between the two. The good teacher, realizing that human feelings are important, i ^expresses feeling herself and encourages the expression of feeling in children. A good nursery school affords parents the opportunity to see their children in relation to other children, to learn to understand them and to gain confidence in their normal reactions and in their own ability to guide tlheir development. In the standards of caring for the young so the generation of the future may be well balanced -- health education and welfare join hands. Iliis trio of good living- forms the essentials to develop a strong body and able mind.
