Abstract

The school garden is an indispensable part of modern education, which lets children physically learn natural science in school. Besides, in the last ten years, many kinds of research also show that school gardens are beneficial for children both physically and mentally. This paper focuses on analyzing the history of the school garden and compares the literature about the School Garden Movement in different countries, and further extracts the characteristics of school gardens in different countries from 1890 till 1920. In this way, we can also understand the advantages and disadvantages of school gardens in various countries from 1890 to 1920. Reflect on the development of the current school garden through the way of understanding history, and consider whether there is room for improvement of the current school garden.
