Small moments. A world to discover.

A basket full of natural treasures can offer more possibilities for play than a finished toy. By exploring textures, shapes, and different ways to use these objects, children develop their imagination, creativity, and problem-solving skills. These experiences are an important part of Sunrise’s Waldorf-inspired approach to early childhood education.

Explore Kindergarten at Sunrise for 2026-27. Bring your family’s priorities to an admissions conversation about the program, relevant availability and next steps.

In Grade 4 at Sunrise, students begin by drawing their own cross-stitch patterns before bringing them to life with needle and thread. This process requires attention to detail, an understanding of form and pattern, and the ability to translate a drawing into practical work.

As part of our Waldorf-inspired curriculum, handwork connects artistic expression with practical and mathematical skills. Students develop fine motor coordination, focus, patience, and perseverance as they work toward a finished piece.

Meet Dr. Richard Freed, child and adolescent psychologist, author of Wired Child and Better Than Real Life, and a leading voice in conversations about technology and childhood.

Trained at Harvard Medical School and the California School of Professional Psychology, Dr. Freed has been featured in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal for his work examining how persuasive technology shapes children’s lives.

His work invites us to look more closely at what children may be missing when screens take the place of real-world experiences—from imaginative play and movement to creativity, connection, and time outdoors.

Join us on November 7 for Protecting Childhood in a Digital World, a workshop with Dr. Richard Freed at Sunrise School of Miami.

Please see link in bio to register.

In Kindergarten, birthdays are an opportunity to pause and honor each child—their journey, their growth, and the unique person they are becoming.

On their birthday, each child receives a beautiful book filled with drawings from their classmates, wears a golden crown, and takes part in a meaningful celebration with their parents and teachers.

These simple rituals help make the day feel special and memorable, while keeping the focus on the child rather than the presents or the party.

The spirit of the celebration can also continue at home. A special breakfast, flowers and candles on a little nature table, a favorite story at bedtime, or making something to share with friends can all become meaningful birthday traditions.

What does childhood need?

Imaginative play.
Boredom.
Movement.
Connection.
Creativity.
Time outdoors.
Attention.

The freedom to explore, make, wonder, and simply be.

These aren’t extras. They’re part of childhood.

But what happens when technology begins to replace some of these essential experiences?

On November 7, Sunrise School of Miami welcomes child and adolescent psychologist Dr. Richard Freed for Protecting Childhood in a Digital World: What Children Need to Grow, Learn, and Thrive.

Together, we’ll explore what children need from childhood — and how we can protect more of those experiences in a digital world.
