Autumn and Winter Nature Activities for Waldorf Kindergartens - Hardcover

by Irmgard Kutsch (Author), Brigitte Walden (Author), Jane Helmchen (Translator)

A wonderful resource book for any Waldorf or Waldorf-inspired kindergarten.

Encourage children to engage with the seasons as they craft willow hanging baskets, harvest and prepare fruit, care for birds and make Advent wreaths.

As well as fun nature activities -- both indoor and outside -- for children, this book also includes advice for teachers and valuable background reading, on topics such as biodynamic farms.

All the activities in this book are based on practical experience from the Children's Nature and Garden Centre in Germany, and are fully tried and tested. This is the companion book to Spring and Summer Nature Activities for Waldorf Kindergartens.
