To Froebel, education is growth from within. It is a development by which an individual realizes that he is one unit of the all-encompassing unity.
As regards the aims of education, Froebel wants all-round development of the individual, so that he may be able to express the spiritual, the Divine that slumbers in him. Like Rousseau, Froebel education should lead to moral improvement, religious uplift and spiritual insight. Then the child will be able to realize that he is component of all-pervading spirit, which is Absolute Unity. Finally, education should enable the child to enter sympathetically into all activities of society and participate freely in its achievements and aspirations.
