A Waldorf gift guide, by age
Presents from 36 makers and shops in 5 countries, sorted by age from babies to 10 and up. Every link goes to the shop’s own site.
The ages are our own rough sort by what each thing is. Each shop sets its own ages and prices, so check them on its site before you buy, and leave time for the post before Christmas.
