Friedrich was born in Thuringia in 1782. He started his career as an educator in Frankfurt. After taking up many roles like live-in teacher for the children of nobles to teacher in boarding schools, he published his major literary work in 1826 called Die

Menschenerziehung (The Education of Man) and founded many educational institutes in Germany and Switzerland. He coined the word ‘Kindergarten’ for the play and activity institute founded in 1837. He was the first to realize the importance of activity based learning for children. Friedrich developed play materials for children known as ‘Froebel Gifts’ which were a set of toys like softballs, building blocks etc to be given at each stage of learning.

Though the concept of kindergarten was not well accepted in his home state in the early days, his students took the concept to the United States where it got adopted. The kindergarten we know today has its origins in the work of this man.
