Parent/Child classes provide a nurturing experience
in our beautiful classroom and playground, under the
guidance of experienced Waldorf teachers. Many of
the questions which face parents today are explored
in the spirit of inquiry and mutual respect. Articles
are provided from a wealth of resources on various
topics for inspiration and discussion. Through quiet
observation of the children, as they move and play,
adults discover new ways of seeing their children.
