Celebrating the Festival of Michaelmas
Michaelmas is a Waldorf-inspired fall festival traditionally celebrated on or around September 29th. As the days grow shorter and we turn toward the darker months, Michaelmas invites us to gather our courage, meet the challenges before us, and discover the light we carry within.
Seasonal festivals can bring meaning and rhythm to your homeschool while creating family memories. This guide offers a simple way to celebrate Michaelmas together through story, movement, and baking.

Hi, I’m Jean!
I loved celebrating seasonal festivals with my own family throughout our homeschooling years. They became a meaningful part of the rhythm and culture of our homeschooling journey.
Now, through the Art of Homeschooling, I support families around the world in creating a holistic homeschool that works for them.
I created this guide to help you bring the beauty and meaning of Michaelmas into your homeschool in a simple, inspiring, and doable way.
Bring a little seasonal magic into your home!
