Schooling from the Heart
One family's homeschooling journey --a fusion of life, unschooling, and Waldorf/Steiner education.

We are a family Waldorf and Enki inspired home learners exploring life and the connection between living and learning. Currently in grade 4, we have traveled the home learning path from the very beginning, and have pursued Waldorf, Enki, unschooling, and now our own blend of very Waldorf-inspired learning. We began with Oak Meadow and Christopherus Homeschool Resources. For a time I was very involved with Enki Education and used their methods and materials exclusively, then as we moved past the available Enki materials we returned to a more traditional Waldorf focus. We are also highly influenced by John Holt and the philosophy of unschooling, although we prefer it to be a soup that surrounds the rhythm of our days rather than our only method. Truly we have seen first hand the difference that a strong rhythm makes in the life of a child. My blog has a bit of everything in it: Oak Meadow, Christopherus, Enki, unschooling, A Little Garden Flower, hand work, musings, life, and love. We've even dabbled a little bit in classical education!

This is a community platform for waldorf-inspired homeschoolers to share lessons and ideas.

Waldorf-Inspired Homeschoolers
This community was created in May 2007. We hope that as it grows, it can serve as a tool to connect families who have chosen to homeschool using Waldorf-inspired methods, either exclusively or in conjunction with other educational methods (unschooling, Charlotte Mason, etc.,) so that we may support and inspire each other.
