Synopsis

This collection of selected excerpts from Rudolf Steiner’s writings and lectures offers insights into the great transformation that takes place in children around the time of the change of teeth, as they make the step from kindergarten to school. Prepared as study material for the inter- national Waldorf educators’ conference taking place in Dornach, Switzerland in 2015, it will serve as an important resource for early childhood educators and their colleagues in the grade school, who must work together to understand and support children as they go through this second “birth.”
