In his research, Rudolf Steiner realized that establishing healthy rhythms in the home supports children in their development and growth. Steiner also came to understand that different colors evoke different feelings in humans; this is why, in Waldorf preschools and schools, a “color of the day” is oftentimes implemented. As a general rule of thumb, this is the breakdown of the week:
Monday: Purple
Tuesday: Red
Wednesday: Yellow
Thursday: Orange
Friday: Green
Saturday: Blue
Sunday: White
You can easily craft your own weekly “calendar” by creating seven “colors of the week” gnomes. One for each day.
Paint seven large peg dolls in the following colors: purple, red, yellow, orange, green, blue, and white. I used a Stockmar watercolor palette to paint the gnomes. Let dry.
Using a block of genuine beeswax, apply a later of beeswax to each peg doll.
Using black and white Acrylic paint as well as a very fine brush, paint on a set of eyes as well as letters representing the days of the week (note that our set has German lettering).
Using wool felt, an embroidery needle, and colorful embroidery yarn, create hats for each gnome. You will want to do a blanket stitch (more detailed instructions in my stories).
Use a hot glue gun to attach the hats to the gnomes.
