Fun for your family here in the Twin Cities!

Published: Thu, 04/12/18

Hey there, !

It's that time of year when kids are staring at the school year's finish line, and mamas and daddies are making plans for next year. 

As a mama of four kids, I love exploring the different options available around the metro.

We are blessed to live in a very educational-friendly atmosphere in the Twin Cities with so many schooling choices including Public, Homeschool, Montessori, and Waldorf.  

If you have never heard of Waldorf education, I think of it as simply an artistic and integrative approach to education. It uses a traditional curriculum with a very progressive approach integrating music and art.  With lots of outdoor recess and an rushed lunch time, it's a great fit for families looking for old school academics with a cutting edge approach.


Minnesota Waldorf School in St. Paul is having an Open House in the morning of Saturday, April 14, 2018.  I am enchanted by this philosophy and can see a few of my kids thriving in this holistic education method.
