This was such a helpful guide for this block. I pulled many things from it when I was planning. I also appreciate seeing firsthand how an experienced teacher approached this block, since it can get a little overwhelming. My son and I had many great discussions and he connected with the stories.

An excellent and straight forward resource that helped guide me through a rather complex block. I was quite intimidated to bring this content to my child, as it is very new to me and I did not attend a Waldorf school, nor am I familiar with Ancient India. However, this curriculum walked me through not only the main lesson content but the supportive lively arts activities. And, the author is very supportive in answering my questions. I feel like I am learning right along side my child; what a blessing!
