Parent-Child Class

Boulder Valley Waldorf’s Parent-Child Program is designed for children 6-18 months together with a parent.

The Parent-Child classes invite children and one of their parents into the Early Childhood classroom to explore the interactions of play, rhythm, and discipline in child development. Once a week, in an hour-and-a-half class, children play with the materials and toys in the classroom and outdoors on play-yard while their accompanying adults work on beautiful and simple projects. In our time together we will learn the meaning of the above statements as we:

• Work and play
• Enjoy our freshly baked bread of organic ingredients
• Move together and laugh with finger plays and circle games
• Hear stories and puppet plays

These classes are intended to be the “gateway” into our school and into Waldorf education, and our hope is parents will discover a new world of learning and support for family life, a dedicated community of other parents, and the way in which Waldorf education addresses the needs of the whole child. The Parent-Child class is a wonderful introduction to the school and a gentle first step to take before your little one is ready for preschool!
