With Michaelmas, the feast of Saint Michael approaching it was time for a little dragon fun. This craft was inspired by a tissue paper hat. I drew a dragon and copied it on our school printer due to the amount of children I work with. Then I cut up colorful tissue paper in small piece for an easy crumple. Each child with free to color and dress up their dragon with crayons and tissue dots. To make the tissue dot crumple the paper and lightly dip it into glue and let the magic unfold.
Welcome, to the sun beam moon beam blog- May the sun beams share their golden light with you as the nightingale shares its song at dawn. In this blog I hope you find something special to share with the people in your life that you love and care for. There are many seasonal crafts inspired by waldorf education, natural, and the daily wonder and questions of the children I have the joy to work with. May magic find you wherever you go!

Pom Poms
How it went. It was really fun for the children they said they felt like their where wrapping pasta on a fork. We made wonderful red apples and found the easiest way to tie them was take the whole bundle of yarn off the fork, find the middle and cut it in half, then lay it down on the table and use another piece of yarn to tie the middle tight.
