Froebel's Gifts were materials designed by Friedrich Froebel as part of his Kindergarten Method.  They are usually made from basic geometric shapes and are designed to teach children about geometry, forms, movement, color, mathematics and other skills, all through play and exploration. 

This collection has examples of the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh gifts. Some are incomplete.
