Anna Warburg

Anna Beata Warburg (27 December 1881, Stockholm — 8 June 1967, Netzer Sereni, Israel) was a Swedish-born Jewish kindergarten specialist who is remembered for her pioneering work both in Sweden and Germany.

[1] After experiencing highly unsatisfactory conditions in a Hamburg kindergarten, Warburg found a much more enlightened approach when she followed a course at the Pestalozzi-Fröbel House in Berlin.

In 1909, she was elected as a board member of the Hamburg Fröbel School, serving on the examination commission from 1933.

In 1910, she established a folk kindergarten where students from the Fröbel School could gain teaching experience.

[1][2] Anna Warburg died on 8 June 1967 aged 85 at the Netzer Sereni kibbutz in Israel.
