Waldorf School

Yesterday we visited a holiday faire at a Waldorf school. Lucy was very excited about the visit, exclaiming, “I’m going to school—like a big girl!” The place was packed with kids and parental units, and there were lots of activities.

In between gnome adventures and cookie forest explorations, Lucy got to:

  • decorate cookies
  • dance to a live band (and crowd)
  • walk a rickety bridge
  • play in a fort
  • make “bird nests” with her mommy
  • run, run, run (and play) for most of the day

The school was pretty neat. We talked a bit to some of the teachers and were also able to see some really creative student projects. Lucy had a great time. It was an ideal way for her to experience her “first day” at school, though she currently thinks your average school day is equal parts cookie decorating, running, dancing, and exploring.
