Waldorf Inspired Class
Classes for infants and toddlers in DC--Starting September.
Saplings Garden – Fall 2010
Saplings Garden is a class for parents and their toddlers, inspired by
the principles and practices of Waldorf education.
The way in which active "on-the-go" toddlers experience the
world is through constant movement and direct experience with everything
they see, hear and touch. With the understanding that their senses are
wide open, this program is designed to be a peaceful time for toddlers
to explore, play and engage with one another in a safe and nurturing
environment and for parents to observe their child(ren) in a relaxed
way. Teachers will demonstrate a calm and quiet way to spend time with
children of this age and facilitate a classroom rhythm (including circle
time and singing songs) that children will come to participate in
naturally. The space will have open-ended toys made of natural
materials to encourage imaginative play and provide a sensory experience
that is not overwhelming. A fresh, organic snack will be provided.
Jeanne Feeney will teach this class with an assistant.
