Excerpt from Mathematics

One of the first faculties which we should develop in the child, from the age when his cerebral activity wakens, is that of drawing. Nearly always, he has the instinctive taste for it, and we must encourage him in it, long before undertaking to teach him writing or reading.

With this object, we should put a slate or a sheet of squared paper in his hands as a beginning, and place a pencil (when he is cleverer, a pen) between his little fingers and make him trace strokes at first; not the classical Sloping strokes, preparatory to sloping writing, but little lines following the direction of the lines on the squared paper, and very regularly spaced.
