How to Get the Waldorf to Buy Your Art
Today I'd love to share with you some resources for calculation Waldorf into your homeschool.
While our family isn't a 100% Waldorf homeschool; I use a lot of Waldorf books and resource, especially in the early on years. I would say about ane/three of our homeschooling is Waldorf inspired.
How we ventured into Waldorf
It was evident when we began homeschooling that our eldest wasn't interested in the 'conventional' ways of learning.
She has an artist soul and is a great story teller, just trying to get her to mindlessly re-create the same messages or concentrate on anything 'schoolhouse like' was challenging.
When I started looking into homeschooling philosophies I loved many aspects of the Waldorf educational activity.
When I showtime read about the first 7 years of a child'due south development with the Waldorf instruction philosophy, information technology spoke to me greatly with the observations I was seeing.
I loved that fine art and stories are incorporated into all subjects.
Head, Heart, Easily.
All lessons focus on multi sensory learning arroyo to focus on the whole child and inner existence. It's not just about learning, it's about growth of the individual.
Our eldest was perfect for the slower unfolding into academics.
Since then I've managed to gently introduce her to language arts (mostly Charlotte Stonemason or Brave Writer inspired) but I endeavour to spend some focus on incorporating art into many lessons in a Waldorf inspired way.

My favorite Waldorf Books
We use a lot of seasonal inspired Waldorf books for crafts, recipes, songs and creating holistic homeschooling. I love existence in the kitchen with the kids and love the stories and recipes in these books. I also add lots of kids nature books.
Waldorf Story Telling
Waldorf uses a lot of the Brother's Grimm tales. As well common are the tales of Tiptoes lightly (a fairy) and Pino Cone and Pepper Pot (two gnomes). Stories are also seasonally inspired and full of nature. Our kids love 'Tell me a Story'
Waldorf Art Supplies & Books
I picked upwardly Painting and Drawing in Waldorf schools but didn't end up doing much with it. I'd similar to add course cartoon into our homeschooling because I've read it's wonderful for evolution. We've loved modelling with beeswax, watercolors, using beeswax crayons and making things with clay. Our kids actually love making peg dolls, especially during the winter months.
If y'all're new to Waldorf art there are some wonderful lessons (you can practice some for costless) from Waldorf.ish
Waldorf Words & Math
Our kids loved (and giggled not stop) at Pine Cone and Pepper Pots introduction to the Alphabet in this volume.
Waldorf likes to integrate math with stories which I love. I never had much success implementing it myself, only I love the math gnomes. There are some great stores on Etsy like GoodFaithToys that sell math gnomes and other peg dolls. You can also make your own.
