Bringing our light into the darkness. Thank you all for a lovely evening. 🕯️

“The sunlight fast is dwindling, my little lamp needs kindling”

Each year, just as the days become noticeably shorter, and the stars appear a little earlier in the sky, friends and families of Playgarden gather together for their annual Lantern Walk; a tradition celebrated throughout LifeWays/Steiner/Waldorf programs and schools around the world.

Here is a popular song that is sung during the Lantern Walk.

“Who’s that trip trapping over my bridge”

~ Three Billy Goats Gruff, Norwegian folktale ~

A little bit of sunshine and a little bit of starch makes for a pretty fun time.

" Everyone talks about peace but no one teaches peace . In this world , you are educated for competition , and competition is the beginning of every war . When he will educate himself for cooperation and to offer each other solidarity , that day he will be educating himself for peace . "
~Maria Montessori~
