Rosebud

Caregiver & Child Class

Cedarwood Rosebud Caregiver & Child classes with Miss Antonella

Rosebud provides a warm, supportive environment for both children and caregivers to experience the rhythm of a Waldorf Early Childhood classroom.

This sweet class provides the opportunity to connect with other parents & caregivers and work on simple crafts while the children have the freedom to engage in self-initiated, imaginative play.

Parents, caregivers, and children will take part in circle time, baking, and snack time, and enjoy little puppet shows. Parents and caregivers will participate in topical discussions.

Classes are open to caregivers and young children (6 months to 3 years old).

Pre-Kindergarten

3- or 5-day

These pre-kindergarten classrooms are designed for the children who leave the warmth of home to attend school for the first time.

They are met with kindness, simplicity and a well-rounded experience. The children begin to immerse themselves in the work of childhood, which we believe is play.

Every aspect of our classrooms is intentionally chosen and carefully prepared to meet the developmental needs of the young child. This includes handcrafted dolls, pieces of wood, colorful beeswax for modeling, and toys that encourage wonder, competence and curiosity.

Children enjoy a variety of hands-on practical activities in a social setting that will develop a sense of competence, skill and community.

Our pre-kindergarten program is mixed age, starting at age 3.

We begin our day at 8:30 am, with the option of a 12:30 pm or 3:00 pm release.

We offer extended care for pre-kindergarten from 3:00 to 6 pm everyday for students in the 3- or 5-day program.

We also offer school break and summer camps for children 4 and older.


Kindergarten

5-day

The children in our kindergarten classes bake bread, paint, draw, garden, cut vegetables, make soup, and importantly, become stewards of their classrooms where they care and support one another.

The children are invited to live fully in their imagination. Each day allows for ample time to play, both inside and outside.

Children absorb the beginnings of science and develop a love of creativity. Storytelling, puppet plays, poetry, sorting and counting are examples of the pre-literacy and pre-academic activities in the kindergarten.

Our kindergarten program is mixed age.

We begin our day at 8:30 am. All kindergarten classes have the option of half-day, released at 12:30 pm, or full day, released at 3:00 pm.

We offer extended care for kindergartners from 3:00 to 6 pm every day.

We also offer school breaks and summer camps at additional cost.
