Waldorf Inspired Winter Nature Table & Winter Themed Books For Kids (VLOG)

Nature table holds a very important place in Waldorf inspired classrooms. This is how I set up my Winter themed nature table with some story props, polar animals, Christmas scene & some activities that we did as a part of winter season. You can also set up seasonal nature tables for kids. Briefly, I will also take you through some Winter themed books that we read this season.

Watch this video below to check out my humble Waldorf inspired winter nature table setup for my almost 3 year old son. You can grab some ideas & understand how to setup a seasonal winter table for your child.

You can also check out this YouTube playlist that has all our Winter & Christmas activities, Winter DIY tutorials, stories books.

And here are 18 Christmas & New Year themed Montessori inspired activities for kids that I did in 2016.

Hope you enjoyed watching this nature table. I would love to see your nature tables, so do drop your links below in comments.

Winter Solstice Story - Yule Faeries - Puppet Show Storytelling For Kids - Waldorf At Home (VLOG)

If you are thinking to tell a story about winter season or winter solstice to your kids, then you are at the right place. Head on to watch this puppet show style storytelling of the very old Pagan fairy tale called "The Yule Faeries". 

This is a beautiful story about a group of little faeries who discover the secret of the winter Solstice. I have retold the story according to how my almost 3 year old son will understand it. You can read the original story here.

We did couple of more winter stories this winter but not been able to share them here on the blog or my Youtube channel as yet.

I would love to know if you have any winter story for kids in your collection. Do share in comments.

Pattern Writing & Waldorf Inspired Chalk Drawing For Winter & Christmas Season (VLOG)

Watch this video to know how we did our prewriting & tracing exercises this winter season using the DIY chalkboard wall at home. I also did my first ever Waldorf inspired chalk board drawing, so watch the video to know how we are going to utilize our chalk drawing. This video is a part of the Youtube playlist where I am sharing (on-going basis) winter & Christmas theme activities that I am doing with my 34 months old son. Last year Christmas activities were all Montessori inspired, but lately I am reading & researching more about Waldorf philosophy so you would see more of nature based learning, seasonal activities, celebrations of festivals, handwork etc in our day to day activities in addition to Montessori materials & activities.

Hope you liked these ideas.
