These seven talks, considered one of the best introductions to the Waldorf approach to education, were given by Rudolf Steiner to a small group on his last visit to England in 1924. Steiner shows how essential it is for teachers to work upon themselves - to transform their natural gifts - and to use humor to keep their teaching lively and imaginative. Above all, he stresses the grave importance of doing everything in the light of knowledge of the child as a citizen of the spiritual as well as the earthly world. Throughout, he returns to the practical value of Waldorf education. | The Kingdom of Childhood by Rudolf Steiner, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
