The Infant System: For Developing the Intellectual and Moral Powers of All Children, from One to Seven Years of Age
1840
The Infant System, written by Samuel Wilderspin and first published in 1840, is a foundational treatise on early childhood education. It presents an innovative approach to developing the intellectual and moral capabilities of children aged one to seven, based on Wilderspin's extensive experience in infant education across the UK. The book critiques existing educational methods and advocates for a holistic system that emphasizes creativity, moral virtue, and a supportive learning environment. Wilderspin's reflections on his own childhood experiences further enrich the text, making it a significant contribution to educational theory.
