Spring (Thurs) - Age 16-28 Months

Parent-child
classes at Emerson Waldorf School provide a supportive and welcoming
environment for both children and caregivers on a weekly basis. We
encourage freedom of movement and self-initiated play for the children,
while parents and caregivers will practice the art of observation,
meaningful work and the opportunity to learn from one another and grow
as a community through sharing common experiences.

Spend
a gentle, nurturing morning with your child under the guiding wing of
our Waldorf early childhood teachers. Parents learn ways to support
their child’s natural development and to create a healthy and balanced
home life through guidance, demonstration, and group sharing, while
children build confidence within a gentle, home-like rhythm.

In
our Morning Garden classes, children take time to socialize and learn
through play and exploration, while adults focus on mindfulness and
setting the tone with meaningful work. A rich morning of indoor and
outdoor activities will facilitate free gross motor movement and engage
with young children’s innate capacity for learning through imitation. A
homemade snack, a delightful circle of songs, gesture and lap games, and
a puppet story round out the morning.

This session is 8 weeks long and is for children aged 16-28 months and their parent or adult guardian (this program is not for Nannies).
