Welcome to the Kettle & Crow Diaries
Hello and welcome to the very first entry in the Kettle and Crow Diaries—our brand-new blog where we’ll share the heartbeat of our forest school community nestled in the lush landscapes of Southern Oregon. Here at Kettle and Crow, every day is an adventure, filled with learning, discovery, and the gentle guidance of nature.
Why We Started This Blog
Our intention with this blog is to provide a window into the magical world of our Waldorf-inspired forest school. Whether you’re a current parent, a prospective family, or simply a fellow nature and education enthusiast, we hope to offer you insights, stories, and inspiration. From the rustling leaves of forest romps to the quiet moments of reflection by the creek, the Kettle and Crow Diaries aim to capture it all.
What to Expect
Each entry in our diary will explore different facets of our daily experiences:
Woodland Wonders: Notes from the field. Step into our daily journey of play, exploration, and the magical moments that make every day at Kettle and Crow unique.
Roots of Learning: We’ll share the foundations of our educational philosophy as well as the research that showcases how direct interaction with the natural world enriches our learning and growth.
Seasonal Rhythms & Revels: Join us as we dive into how the changing seasons bring new themes and learning opportunities, celebrating the cycles of nature with joy and reverence.
Family Adventure Guide: Tips and guidance on how to extend the learning experience at home, including activities you can do together.
