This comes up quite a bit. Honestly, I think the best place to start is Steiner himself and then delve into other people’s works. Here are my suggestions:
Introductory Works To Waldorf Education:
- The Kingdom of Childhood – Steiner
- The Education of The Child – Steiner
- The Spirit of The Waldorf School – Steiner
- Soul Economy – Steiner (Maybe more an intermediate level, but probably my favorite in many ways).
- These books can be bought here: http://www.waldorfbooks.com/edu/steiner_waldorf.htm
For Children Under The Age of 7: one of the Following:
- You Are Your Child’s First Teacher (check your library for this title) (Dancy Baldwin)
- Heaven on Earth (Oppenheimer)
- Beyond the Rainbow Bridge (Patterson and Bradley)
For the Big Overall Picture Of Waldorf Education – Otherwise Known As “The Kindergarten Years Are Very Short”:
-
The Waldorf Parenting Handbook (Cusick)
-
Waldorf Education: A Family Guide (Fenner and Rivers)
-
School As A Journey (Finser)
-
The Christopherus Waldorf Curriculum Overview for Homeschoolers (Simmons)
I hope that is helpful to some of you.
Many blessings,
Carrie
