A Year & a Day - A Waldorf-Inspired Seasonal Quarterly Magazine for Children Spring 2024 edition. In Spring, when snow and ice has melted away, rivers become alive with sound. Rive rs and riverbanks are wonderfully diverse habitats, home to a rich variety of plants and animals. Throughout human history, rivers have been used as means of transportation, as territory markers and as sources of food. And humans have recognised and revered the wild power of rivers. In this issue we include three traditional tales that help to answer some of our questions about rivers. What are rivers? How are they formed? Can their power be harnessed? Who makes their river a home? By the time you have read this issue, we hope that you will be able to... make a river swimmer, create a dot painting, write a river song, bake a beaver tail... and much more! A Year & a Day is a seasonal quarterly magazine for children that aims to lead children into the realm of traditional stories and out into the natural world around them through craft, artistic, movement, literacy and numeracy-based activities. Each issue includes three full stories, fifteen story-based activities and several additional seasonally themed pages, including recipes, posters and quizzes. Printed on high quality, uncoated paper, especially for drawing and writing on. Show more
