Is Fairy Ring right for your family?

7/24/2019

 
How are LifeWays early childhood programs unique?
LifeWays North America draws from the indications of Rudolf Steiner/Waldorf education and modern formulations such as The Irreducible Needs of Children by Brazelton and Greenspan, which emphasize nurturing the child’s sense of trust and well-being through having the same caregivers throughout the early years (i.e., continuity of care).  This relationship-based care takes family life as its model, so it complements your home life and provides an environment in which your child will flourish.

LifeWays programs recognize that human relationship and activity are the essential tools for all foundational skills for life.  In infancy and early childhood, daily life experience is the “curriculum” through which your child experiences healthy life rhythms and routines.  Beauty, comfort, security, and connection to the living world of nature form the basis for the “Living Arts:”
  • Domestic Arts--Children find joy in the practical and meaningful activities of daily life, laying a foundation for future academic skills, initiative and purpose.
  • Nurturing Arts--Your child will be nourished with natural foods, hair brushing, calming footbaths, daily outdoor time, and rest for full-day children.
  • Social Arts--Mixed-age groupings foster a secure relationship with the primary caregiver over time and provide the opportunity to be both a younger and older “sibling.”
  • Creative Arts--Imaginative play is enriched by storytelling, puppet shows, artistic activities, crafts, music and singing.
