Morning Glory is a home-based Waldorf initiative operating throughout the year. Ages 3-7, Monday to Wednesday, 9:00 am - 2:00 pm. Creating an enriching creative experience for children and families. There is an emphasis on rhythm to the day. Play is sacred here; this can be the children's first choice of activity or they can choose from chopping vegetables, baking, sweeping, painting or the craft of the day. We have several festivals a year which we work towards with crafts and all the families come and celebrate together. We spend 1-2 hours outside every day regardless of weather and have 3 amazing possibilities; a beach walk, a farm/forest/marsh hike or a rainforest adventure, all 5 minutes from the door. more info
