Little Acorn Playgarden - Nature Based Childcare Nature Based Childcare and Homeschool in Brookfield, CT
A NEST IN NATURE is just that, a NEST, a small, nurtucommunity home atmosphere, where the children are treated as the unique individuals they are, able to live and learn at their own pace. Nature doesn't rush and neither should little children.
Our days consist of living and learning amidst nature and animals in an enriching and respectful environment. The children learn by DOING, and we live life JOYFULLY.
We mirror the seasons and strive to live in HARMONY with the earth and with each other. There is a RHYTHM to our lives and a real CONNECTION to the natural world around us.
Besides animals and nature, there is an emphasis on ART, MUSIC, and LITERATURE.
There is also ample TIME for free choice PLAY, allowing the child to decide how to fill his time.
Play is a child's work and fosters the IMAGINATION and CREATIVITY. And add freedom, cooperation and decision-making and that helps them grow as people.
Alaskan Mommy, Massage Therapist, Artist, bloging about my family and our experiences with an emphasis on Waldorf education and how I'm implementing it into our lifestyle. I believe the world would better a better place if Waldorf was the primary educational paradigm. I'm hoping to "spread the word".
