The daughter of baron Georg von Bülow-Wendhausen and countess Amalie Marie von Wartensleben married baron Wilhelm von Marenholtz, whom she left in 1847 without getting divorced. She was attracted by the ideas of Friedrich Fröbel, whom she met in 1850. She became his disciple and devoted her life to founding kindergartens in Germany and many other European countries. - - - Friedrich Fröbel (né le 21 avril 1782 à Oberweissbach (Thuringe), mort le 21 juin 1852 à Marienthal (de)) est un pédagogue allemand. Le principal titre de « gloire » de Fröbel, qualifié de « maître germanique de l'éducation de la petite enfance », reste sa conception pédagogique qui est à l'origine des jardins d'enfants, une idée au retentissement universeln . Fröbel appliqua aussi ses théories à l'enseignement scolaire, mettant ainsi ses idées en pratique dans l'école privée qu'il fonda près de Weimar, « l'Institut général allemand d'éducation » de Keilhau, près de Rudolstadt. En Angleterre et au Japon, notamment, sa pédagogie du jardin d'enfants a donné des discussions passionnées. Ses matériels de jeu, « dons » et « occupations » ont été popularisés dans le monde entier au xixe siècle. Avec le matériel pédagogique de Montessori, ils constituent un des programmes le plus efficace et le plus complet d'éveil par le jeu des enfants âgés de trois à six ans. - - - Friedrich Wilhelm August Fröbel or Froebel was a German pedagogue, a student of Pestalozzi who laid the foundation for modern education based on the recognition that children have unique needs and capabilities. He created the concept of the "kindergarten" and coined the word, which soon entered the English language as well. He also developed the educational toys known as Froebel Gifts. He began as an educator in 1805 at the Musterschule (a secondary school) in Frankfurt, where he learned about Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi's ideas. He later worked with Pestalozzi in Switzerland where his ideas further developed. From 1806 Fröbel was the live-in teacher for a Frankfurt noble family's three sons. He lived with the three children from 1808 to 1810 at Pestalozzi's institute in Yverdon-les-Bains in Switzerland. In 1811, Fröbel once again went back to school in Göttingen and Berlin, eventually leaving without earning a certificate. He became a teacher at the Plamannsche Schule in Berlin, a boarding school for boys, and at that time also a pedagogical and patriotic centre. During his service in the Lützow Free Corps in 1813 and 1814 - when he was involved in two campaigns against Napoleon - Fröbel befriended Wilhelm Middendorf, a theologian and fellow pedagogue, and Heinrich Langethal, also a pedagogue. After Waterloo and the Congress of Vienna, Fröbel found himself a civilian once again and became an assistant at the Museum of Mineralogy under Christian Samuel Weiss. This did not, however, last very long, and by 1816 he had quit and founded the Allgemeine Deutsche Erziehungsanstalt (German General Education Institute) in Griesheim near Arnstadt in Thuringia. A year later he moved it to Keilhau near Rudolstadt. In 1831, work was continued there by the other cofounders Wilhelm Middendorf and Heinrich Langethal.
