I’ve been researching Waldorf to incorporate it into our family life. It has similarities to Montessori but lots of differences. One of the things I like about Waldorf is the daily rhythm and the creation of family traditions. These are things that make childhood magical yet are simple to do. One aspect of this is using poems and rhymes to mark transitions during the day. I’ve been trying to find a poem for bedtime but didn’t find one that was just right. So I made my own. Here it is:
The sun’s gone down
The moon is high
It’s time to sleep
Now close your eyes
Snug and cozy
In your bed
With lots of kisses
On your head
May Angels come
Watch over you
And Jesus keep
You safe too
It’s time to sleep
Now I must go
Don’t make a peep
I love you so
