NATIONAL KINDERGARTEN DAY – April 21

In 1837, the first kindergarten (which means a garden for the children) was established in Blankenburg, Germany. The kindergarten supported Frobel's social experience for children. It also helped them to move from home to school in a streamlined manner.

Frobel's unconventional methods were eventually outlawed by the Prussian government, who eventually banned the use of his unorthodox techniques.. However, the United States, Canada, and other parts of the world were eager to accept Frobel's idea of kindergarten, including the United States.

Watertown, Wisconsin, 1856, opened the first kindergarten in the United States in 1856. This kindergarten, which was founded by Margarethe Schurz, was a German-language kindergarten, as were many in the area. Kindergarten found its way into private English-speaking kindergartens around the country. However, it wasn't until 1873 that it became part of any public school system, but it wasn't until 1873 that it became part of any public school system.
