Waldorf Kindergarten Activities -
At Seedlings children have the opportunity to engage in a range of creative activities which encourage the development of their fine motor skills. The children are provided with a variety of natural materials including beeswax, sheep fleece, natural wools and cottons, as well as things they find themselves in nature such as feathers, acorns, conkers and seeds. These natural materials stimulate the child's inherent aesthetic sense, as well as connecting them with nature through their senses of touch, sight, sound and smell.
