What reading level is The Kindergarten book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Pestalozzi em- phasized the principle "Activity is the law of childhood; let the child do; educate the hand," but he did not point out in detail how to do this.
Froebel followed and worked out this 90 fmidameutal priuciple. The watchword of the kindergarten is ^' Do." Mothers rejoice in the kindergarten because it gives the child something definite to do. It furnishes a vent for their ceaseless activity.
What do children do in the kindergarten ?
They build, they sew, they draw, they prick, they
... weave, they fold, they cut, they paste, they mould, they dig, i\\Qy sing ; they imitate in gesture, hopping, flying, sowing, reaping, the turning of a wheel, the falling of the rain, the snow, the winding of a river, etc.
Not only is the love of doing thus grati- fied, but nnderlying this is the appeal to the love of imitating ; for in all these ac- tivities the children become imitators of the work of real life which they see about them or hear described in stories.
It is sympathy, a feeling with, that awa- kens this desire to imitate, and in the very act of imitating the feeling of sympathy with different workmen and even with dif- ferent animals is strengthened, and thus the child is again led to the feeling of unity, to which Froebel's philosophy ever tends.
