YOUR KINDERGARTEN DEPARTMENT

IS THE KINDERGARTEN DEPARTMENT of your Sabbath-school supplied with the material necessary to teach the little folks Scripture lessons in a manner to make the lesson interesting to them, so that the study period will be one of joy, which will be looked forward to eagerly from one Sabbath to the next, and at the same time help in making the Scripture lesson practical? ¶ If not, you should send at once for the full kindergarten outfit. This outfit consists of the lesson book, “Bible Object Lessons and Songs for Little Ones,” on the life of Christ, and a round table with little red chairs, as shown in the illustration above, and three boxes of material. Read the following description: The book contains illustrative material for mothers and teachers. It has fifty-two lessons, one for each Sabbath in the year. It contains thirty-nine songs and hymns, written especially for these lessons. It has thirty-six full-page pictures, size 6 x 9 inches. It has fifty-two pen drawings, showing how to use the illustrative material. The book contains 160 large pages, beautifully printed.
¶ Once bought, this is permanent, being designed for use year after year. Your school should have one copy of this book for each teacher in the Kindergarten Department. Let the first lessons for every child be on the life and words of Jesus. No child lessons can equal those by and about the Master. It pays to make religious instruction delightsome instead of irksome.
THE ROUND TABLE has a beautiful hard top, folding legs, and inside cabinet with lock for material. Seats seven children and the teacher. Advantages of these are: First, each child can reach center of table to help build the lessons. Second, teacher can reach every child. Third, table is heavy, so material is not easily shaken down. Fourth, can be folded and rolled away, so that any room may be used if none is permanently devoted to the kindergarten work. Fifth, table is varnished, easily cleaned, and lasts a lifetime.
EIGHT LITTLE RED CHAIRS for the class and the teacher are a delight to the children, and add to the convenience of the round table. The THREE BOXES OF MATERIAL make teaching easy. Boxes 1 and 2 contain hard maple blocks cut into cubes, halves, quarters, squares, and oblongs. Boxes are of cherry, dove-tailed corners, sliding top, durable. Box 3 contains 10 miniature sheep, 30 mounted sticks to represent people (10 of them children), green French tissue-paper for Sea of Galilee, cones and domes, and green splints for river outline and tree-building. If the three boxes are ordered with book, purchaser receives free a “Portfolio of Blackboard Sketches on the Life of Christ,” to aid in drawing.
THE PRICES.— The book is issued in two styles of binding, board cover, $1.50; blue cloth, $2.00. The little red chairs, 60 cents each, freight or express extra. The table (weight 40 pounds), $5.50, freight or express extra. Three boxes of material, $2.00, mail 40 cents extra. If the book and material are ordered with the table, they are put into the drawer, thus saving postage.
The blocks, table, and chairs being practically indestructible, very little expense is necessary in the running of the Kindergarten Department after the first fitting up. The children take great delight in helping to build these lessons, and the impressions thus made remain with them as long as they live. This kindergarten outfit will be a great blessing to your Sabbath-school.
