“The preschool years, the kindergarten years, (the years before formal

schooling) are the most important of all in the education of the child.”

“It is absolutely essential that before we begin to think, before we so

much as begin to set our thinking in motion, we experience the

condition of wonder.”

Rudolf Steiner

devote himself with confidence and power to the service of the world.’

An Environment that Nourishes the Senses

“The essential task of the early childhood educator is to create the

proper physical environment around the children.

‘Physical environment’ must be understood in the widest sense

imaginable. It includes not just what happens around the children in the

material sense, but everything that occurs in their environment,

everything that can be perceived by their senses, that can work on the

inner powers of the children from the surrounding physical space.”

Creative and Artistic Experience

“In order to become true educators, we must be able to see the truly

aesthetic element in the work, to bring an artistic quality into our tasks. .

. . If we bring this aesthetic element, then we begin to come closer to

what the child wills out of its own nature.”

Meaningful Adult Activity to be Imitated

“The task of the early childhood educator is to adapt the practical

activities of daily life so that they are suitable for the child’s imitation

through play. . . . The activities of children in early childhood must be

derived directly from life itself rather than being “thought out” by the

intellectualized culture of adults. …The most important thing is to give

children the opportunity to directly imitate life itself.”

— Rudolf Steiner, The Child’s Changing Consciousness

”Children do not learn through instruction or admonition but though

imitation. Good sight will develop if the environment has the proper

conditions of light and color, while in the brain and blood circulation,

the physical foundations will be laid for a healthy sense of morality if

children witness moral actions in their surroundings.”

Self-Initiated Free, Imaginative Play

“In the child’s play activity, we can only provide the conditions for

education. What is gained through play, through everything that cannot

be determined by fixed rules, stems fundamentally from the self-activity

of the child, the real educational value of play lives in the fact that we

ignore our rules and regulations, our educational theory, and allow the

child free rein.”

— Rudolf Steiner, Self Education in the Light of Anthroposophy

“Giving direction and guidance to play is one of the essential tasks of

sensible education, which is to say an art of education that is right for

humanity. . . . The early childhood educator must school her observation

in order to develop an artistic eye, to detect the individual quality of each

child’s play.”

Protection of the Forces of Childhood

“Although it is highly necessary that each person should be fully awake

in later life, the child must be allowed to remain as long as possible in

the peaceful, dreamlike condition of pictorial imagination in which his

early years of life are passed. For if we allow his organism to grow strong

in this nonintellectual way, he will rightly develop in later life the

intellectuality needed in the world today.”

— Rudolf Steiner, A Modern Art of Education

Gratitude, Reverence, and Wonder

“An atmosphere of gratitude should grow naturally in children through

merely witnessing the gratitude the adults feel as they receive what is

freely given by others, and in how they express this gratitude. If a child

says ‘thank you’ very naturally—not in response to the urging of others,

but simply through imitating— something has been done that will greatly

benefit the child’s whole life. Out of this an all-embracing gratitude will

develop toward the whole world. This cultivation of gratitude is of

paramount importance.”

— Rudolf Steiner, The Child’s Changing Consciousness

“Out of these early, all-pervading experiences of gratitude, the first

tender capacity for love, which is deeply embeddedn each and every

child, begins to sprout in earthly life. If, during the first period of life,

we create an atmosphere of gratitude around the children, then out of

this gratitude toward the world, toward the entire universe, and also out

of thankfulness for being able to be in this world, a profound and warm

sense of devotion will arise . . . upright, honest, and true.“

—Rudolf Steiner, The Child’s Changing Consciousness

Joy, Humour, and Happiness

“The joy of children in and with their environment must therefore be

counted among the forces that build and shape the physical organs.

They need educators who look and act with happiness and, most of all,

with honest, unaffected love. Such a love that streams, as it were, with

warmth through the physical environment of the children may be said to

literally ‘hatch out’ the forms of the physical organs.”


“If you make a surly face so that a child gets the impression you are a

grumpy person, this harms the child for the rest of his life. What kind of

school plan you make is neither here nor there; what matters is what

sort of person you are.”

— Rudolf Steiner, The Kingdom of Childhood

Early Childhood Educators on a Path of Inner Development

“For the small child before the change of teeth, the most important

thing in education is the teacher’s own being.”

— Rudolf Steiner, Essentials of Education

“Just think what feelings arise in the soul of the early childhood

educator who realizes: What I accomplish with this child, I accomplish

for the grown-up person in his twenties. What matters is not so much a

knowledge of abstract educational principles or pedagogical rules. . . .

[W]hat does matter is that a deep sense of responsibility develops in [the

educator’s heart and mind] and that this affects her or his worldview and

the way she or he stands in life.”

— Rudolf Steiner, ‘Education in the Face of the Present-Day World

Situation’, Lecture of June 10, 1920
