A welcome change from the usual toddler groups we attend - in a quiet, relaxed environment with soft colours and natural materials children play freely with simple wooden toys, handmade rag dolls, play cloths and nature’s toys like conkers, shells and pine-cones. There is a seasonal craft or activity, drawing with pure beeswax crayons, then tidying-up time is followed by a wholesome organic snack and the session ends with ring time, singing seasonal songs and playing finger games.

When we went, I felt Milo (16 months) was a little young as there were activities such as threading conkers and baking bread, but I think it's those are lovely activities for 18months + so we'll be back. The Waldorf School have written to me and said the activities are mostly for the grown-ups while our little ones play, in which case they were great fun! Although I had to keep a close eye on junior so couldn't quite take part. (Visited by Sarah)
