We do Waldorf School because they teach community and hands on skills like knitting, woodworking, archery, art, performance, cooking, music and language. #waldorfschool

Is it an actual school they go to?
It is. Small, about 100 students on a beautiful campus in the forest.
This is the guy that started the Waldorf schools' philosophy.

Are you a fan? Some people dislike him but I find he’s palatable with context.
No, not a fan. My son went to a Waldorf school for a couple years. He needed the time outside just being a kid after 5 years of chemo. His first year, the teacher was awesome. Exactly, what he needed. She retired and the school struggled to find a teacher. They had three in one year. the second year, the weird spiritual side was becoming apparent with the school and the teacher who stayed was very pushy with it. I started researching it and was a bit appalled. So, at the end of the year, he was done. I think of it a wolf in sheep clothing. I hold strongly to a Christian world view and was very uncomfortable.
