Reverence for nature is fundamental in Waldorf early childhood education.

Early Childhood

A beautiful bridge from home to school...

Young children learn best through imitation, through their senses and through activity. Learning occurs through imitation of practical and artistic activities like baking bread, cutting up vegetables for soup, painting, molding beeswax. Even tidying up the doll corner becomes a rich experience of singing, folding and accomplishing something tangible! In this natural, secure, loving and creative environment, the children's bodies as well as their "will" to engage in life and activities are developed...significant achievements in themselves and the foundations for the next phase of school life.
