Child Development: Year by Year
Dear Parent,
Perhaps you are coming to Waldorf education for the first time; or perhaps you seek a simple, clear reference for how Waldorf early childhood education meets your child. We hope that this series of concise, friendly discussions tracing your child’s first seven years is just what you’ve been looking for. Each article includes links to material providing deeper treatment of related topics, and lists of references for further exploration.
Child Development: Year by Year is also available as a print resource for distribution at Waldorf early childhood programs and beyond.
And for further reading, you can follow the links in the “Books” lists of the documents below to shop our online store.
