Parent and Child Class

In the Oakland Steiner Parent-and-Child program, opportunities abound for a child’s natural exploration of his or her surroundings in the presence of a parent, grandparent or caregiver. Children will work side by side with the adult, under the guidance of our trained Waldorf teacher to make nutritious snacks, paint, make simple crafts, learn songs, verses and stories, and do everyday household tasks. These simple rhythms give children a sense of contentment and connection to the world in which they live.

Their sense of wonder and imagination are stretched. Classes give the families the opportunity to gain helpful insights in to the developing child with a Waldorf approach through class examples and handout material. The class can provide a gateway to families with young children to enter into our Waldorf school and community. It is an introduction to our preschool classes for children up to four years old with their parent or caregiver.

For close to a century, Waldorf schools around the globe have been working to safeguard childhood.
