The Curvilinear Series of Gifts was developed, like many of the
Froebel Gifts, after Froebel\'s death. Froebel established the
philosophical foundation for these Gifts in his book Education
by Development, but their use was not formalized until much
later. Purists have argued against adding to the traditional Gift
series, yet Froebel was clearly advocating the use of the
curvilinear solids in his writings. Our Curvilinear Gift is a
slight modification from the cylindrical set sold by the Milton
Bradley Company (and featured in the book The Kindergarten
Building Gifts by Elizabeth Harrison & Belle Woodson). Our
curvilinear setis divided into three concentric rings 1/2\" thick
with 3 vertical layers. In this way, the 3-fold division is
maintained in both directions.
This Gift is best used with children 5 years old and older. This
set contains small pieces that may pose a choking hazard for young
children. Manufactured in Viet Nam. WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD --
Small parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
