If you are looking for support and information on home and/or un-schooling based on a Waldorf Inspired Curriculum, you have come to the right place! Please, make yourself a cup of tea and enjoy our site! As parents, you can provide nothing of more lasting value than an education which develops your child’s full human potential. Waldorf ideals for education emphasize and awaken disciplined creativity, wonder, reverence and respect for nature and human existence. Waldorf methods have proven to offer a holistic educational model designed to provide the right stimulus at the right time and allow each child’s abilities to fully unfold.
In the first seven years of life, the child seeks to see that the world is a place of goodness, and will learn primarily by imitation and through activity. In the next developmental phase (through puberty) the child most naturally learns through beauty, from adults who merit being authorities. (This is why storytelling and art are employed as teaching vehicles throughout the elementary curriculum.) Finally, entering into the third developmental stage, and ready at last for true independent thinking: the teenager naturally begins a quest for truth.

Kytka’s Reviews: Spiritual Syllabus & Golden Beetle Books: Geneii of Language
Geneii of Language (was curriculum/math stories)
From the Prologue, “The miracle of words calls on the ego forces of the writer, speaker/listener, and reader – it calls on the Self. The potential in children for self-expression is enhanced by a comprehensive, consistent, and creative language education – this small manual is directed to these high ends.”
Like most of the Golden Beetles, the Geneii of Language is a small booklet, about 90 pages and about 5″ x 7′. It focuses on the language arts main lessons and middle lessons for the first and second grades. Read the rest of this entry »

Ask Kytka Archives: March 6, 2003
Are you associated with AWSNA
Q. Dear Kytka, I have just found your web site and it is quite good. I am a trained Waldorf teacher of many years experience currently living in Oklahoma where there are no Waldorf schools. I know many parents here are interested in homeschooling their children and your site may be a very good resource. My question is: What is your relationship to AWSNA? I understand they are very careful with the word Waldorf and I wonder how they relate to your work. I’ve surfed through the questions you’ve answered and the statements you make seem to be accurate, so far. But in skimming your biography…

A safari is the perfect adventure to share with your children or grandchildren. It is an incredible experience that will stay with them throughout their lives. You should see the excitement in a child’s eyes when they see their first safari animal up close and personal. Children are absolutely fascinated with the sights and sounds of East Africa’s abundant wildlife. Such an adventure is a great opportunity to share with young family members how their peers live halfway around the world and to see how different they are, yet how similar. A very special way to spend time together as a family – safari adventures create unforgettable memories for the whole family.
What a great safari is supposed to be:
