You are Your Child's First Teacher: What Parents can do with and for their Children from Birth to Age Six

Rahima Baldwin Dancy warns against rushing children through childhood. She advocates a "slow parenting" revolution which will allow children to develop at their own pace, and crucially, will help parents discover confidence in their own ability to parent and enjoy the magical first years of raising a child.

This is such a valuable text for parents of young children, it has wonderful resources listed at the end of every chapter and Dancy makes it easy to understand parenting the Waldorf way.
