Pre-school & kindergarten; Teachers' classroom resources & material

This classic games book offers a standby resource for parents, teachers, forest school educators and play leaders. The games are tried and tested. They draw on worldwide Steiner - Waldorf creative education, where a ‘child’s work is their play.’ Child growth is explored and how this is helped by a rich treasury of action, finger, circle, clapping, beanbag, chasing, water, tumbling, story and singing games. There are both traditional favourites and also new games created to engage with digitally challenging behaviour.

Reviews for Waldorf Games Handbook for the Early Years – Games to Play & Sing with Children aged 3 to 7: 142 Counting, Finger, Beanbag, Circle, Clapping, Skipping, Water, Singing, and Rainy Day Games

What a delightful collection! The wide range of games are described so clearly that it’s easy to fund something to play with a lucky child or group of children. And then you’ll want to play something else, just because it so much fun to play and sing. Rahima Baldwin Dancy, author, You are Your Childs First Teacher
