Spring and Summer Nature Activities for Waldorf Kindergartens
A wonderful resource book for any Waldorf or Waldorf-inspired kindergarten.
Encourage children to engage with the seasons as they build bird boxes, use plant dyes, make earthworm boxes, grow and cook fresh herbs, create Easter bowls and care for butterflies.
