In this thoughtful book, Freya Jaffke describes festival celebrations in relation to child development in the first seven
years. She considers in detail the main festivals throughout the yearaster, Pentecost, St. John, back-to-school,
harvest, Michaelmas, lantern time, birthdays, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, and carnival.
Drawing on many examples, she shows how we can celebrate festivals in a meaningful way with children, both at
home and in kindergarten. Every festival is prefaced with a deeper contemplation for adults before considering
preparations with children. This is followed by the actual organization of the festivalith games, craft activities
and decorations, stories, songs, poems and the seasonal nature table.
