How Waldorf Education Nurture Young Minds

Early nurturing your child with best education will help him grow into much self- actualize well being. Parents take a crucial part in molding their child’s development. However, teachers as second caterers of parenthood take a grasp of the child’s growth and development.

Waldorf School secures the integrity and wholeness in their curriculum. As early as seven and eight years old they try to focus on what the child’s needs in their ages, wherein they feed the child’s developing imaginative minds with stories like animal fables and saint stories which definitely captivates their attention and interest. On the other hand, these stories do not only feed the child’s imaginations but also caters their moral aspect and good values as well.

In Waldorf learning system, the teacher does not only tell stories of fables and saints but also helps the children to explore the wholeness of the animals and saints with their deeds. The teacher does not deliver the stories alone, but also let the child explore the whole picture and notion of the stories making the child to unveil the great values embed on the stories. The teacher also tries to draw out the child’s conclusion from each story and as the story rolls on the child’s thought, it also draws out the child’s imaginative and descriptive picture making the child to be much responsive and more enthusiastic.

To make a life a masterpiece, sometimes you need to color beyond the lines. In school, the child paints itself in dark and light color. As the child goes on, the pursuit of seeking one’s purpose grows within the child. Frustrations and all negative views may interpret the dull side of one’s life picture, but proper guidance will not only help the child to make a picture of light beyond the shadows and sooner will make a path of his own blending different colors to make his life a relic of masterpiece.
