Today, we remember September 11 - may we honor those we lost, may we learn, and may we continue to choose kindness. ❤️

📖 on that day, written by our own Berkshire Waldorf School Librarian, Andrea Patel, is a gentle children’s book that offers a message of hope and healing in the wake of 9/11. The book was also highlighted by Reading Rainbow, helping children approach a difficult moment in history with care and understanding.

Parent-Child at Berkshire Waldorf School offers a nurturing space for toddlers through age 3 to explore, play, and connect alongside loving parents and caregivers.

Together, we’ll enjoy seasonal songs and puppet stories, prepare simple snacks, and explore topics such as rhythm at home, early movement and development, and supporting your child’s emerging play.

Come experience a warm community where young children can build social connections, develop motor skills, and joyfully discover the world!

Third grade can be a challenging and exciting time for children! As they become more independent and begin to see themselves and the world in new ways, they may face big questions and "growing pains".

At Berkshire Waldorf School, our approach supports children through this important transition with imagination, hands-on learning, storytelling, movement, nature, and meaningful academic work.

We meet children where they are, helping them build confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of capability while making learning joyful, engaging, and fun! ✨

One mom noticed how rough third grade had been for her daughter both emotionally and socially. Here’s what she learned.
