Waldorf-Inspired Homeschool Preschool | Books, Curriculum We Used | Early Years #homeschool #waldorf

If you're looking for a gentle, nature-inspired approach to preschool homeschool, in this video I’m sharing the books, resources, and curriculum that shaped our early homeschool years. When my oldest daughter was in her preschool years, I experimented with a variety of materials while we were transitioning from a Montessori mindset toward a more Waldorf-inspired rhythm at home. In this video I walk through the parenting philosophy books, nature activity guides, and early childhood curriculum that actually worked for our family. I also talk about the (slightly controversial in Waldorf circles!) decision to teach my daughter to read when she was three after she repeatedly asked to learn. If you're building a gentle homeschool rhythm for your preschooler and looking for inspiration for books, activities, and curriculum, I hope this gives you some helpful ideas.
