Morning Glory is a playgroup for caregivers with an older child who is 20 months to 3½ years¹. Class activities and interactions support social development as these children prepare for nursery.
We have two Morning Glory classes that meet weekly for 10 classes on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 to 11:15 am. Classes follow the Waldorf School at Moraine Farm schedule.
Parent & Child Classes at Waldorf at Moraine Farm - Beverly MA. Parent and Child classes offer parents, grandparents, and caregivers the opportunity to learn about child development, Waldorf education and parenting the young child all within a home-like environment at our beautiful location on Moraine Farm.
With indoor and outdoor play spaces where parents and children can explore and experience a soothing rhythm that supports play, imagination and imitation, our educators offer support and guidance for each family and child. It is a time for interacting with your young child for a morning of bread-making, free play and movement, circle games, songs and nature activities while exploring topics such as:
- Sleep
- Meals with Children
- Discipline in Early Childhood
- Media/Technology and Family Life
- Rhythms in the Home
- Children in Nature
