The days are getting longer as we approach summer solstice and most children have finished the school year. We've put together a new list of fun tutorials and beautiful craft ideas to make summer even more fun. If you're looking for ways to fill your days, follow along with our calendar each day, or simply mark off activities as you complete them throughout the month.
A special thanks to Stephanie Green for sharing her beautiful artwork, featured on the June calendar. Explore her line: Waldorf Family.
