Easter / Spring Wheel – Waldorf Family

The beautifully illustrated wooden Waldorf Family Easter wheel for the Spring season takes children and adults on a journey – celebrating Waldorf seasons and ultimately to the centre, towards light and a celebration of Easter or Spring Equinox. The wheel allows children to travel through the journey towards Easter, rather than just arriving.

An original watercolour and hand-drawn pencil illustration, the wheel captures the spring season, with its light joyful energy and filled with animals and people. The Easter wheel creates a space on your table or in your home to take time and think about the changing seasons. You could ask children questions like what can you see here, what do you spot outside?

The Waldorf Family Easter wheel is a delightful addition to any classroom or home and can be used as a table centre, combined with small wooden figurines fitting to the Spring season and theme. The wheel starts with green shots and bulbs emerging from the ground. Then animals wake up from their winter sleep. This moves us to start thinking about Waldorf festivals typical for this period: like Candlemas and pancake day. Moving onwards the wheel welcomes Spring with stunning illustrations of lambs, baby rabbits and the swallows coming home. Near the end we eventually arrive at Easter, with parades and crafts, eggs and hares.

Part of the seasonal rhythm collection, the Easter wheel is created on FSC approved sustainable Garnicia plywood. It is 9mm thick and has a diameter of 295mm.
