How to Make Seasonal Peg Dolls | Waldorf Kindergarten & First Grade

These adorable peg dolls represent the seasons. We use them with our calendar peg dolls. Each day, the kids replace the day of the week and day of the month peg dolls. And each month and each season they replace another one. It's a fun way to keep track of the days, months and seasons. Each morning the kids look forward to changing the day. They can also use these with our weather gnomes we made last year.

Your daughter's set is adorable! I am a fan of the whimsy of your decorative Spring peg doll. That single one was my favourite

[@PepperandPine]

Thank you! My little girl did great and I'm so glad 'Spring' has a fan ;)

[@TheJoyarmstrong1]

I didn't realize you'd been making peg dolls for so long! I thought it was a new thing. 😊 I'm glad I watched...I now understand the draw! Very fun to make.

[@PepperandPine]

Oh yes! I made them when I only had two boys. Granted they weren't as played with as with my younger two kids who are crazy for them. I've made more in the last two years than all the previous years combined.

So lovely. Watch it couple times, and ready to make mine own. Thank you so much for sharing all work you do. Would not able to do without it all my homeschooling. Sorry for my "Ukrainian" English. I watch you for years. And recommended you to so many!

I love the Gnomes that you and your daughter made. So adorable! I make my own Gnomes, and make them arms with pipe cleaners, then I make clothes for them out of felt. Gnomes are so cute! Making dolls to represent days, months, and seasons is a great idea! ~Janet in Canada 🧙‍♂️

I love your peg dolls. I'd love to incorporate these in our homeschool. Dreaming one day lol. Beautiful.

[@PepperandPine]

I'm just about to record a video that shows how we use our peg dolls for storytelling. We already use them for date and weather. If you're unsure about them, pick up some basic ones from a local craft store and use their felt. It's all super affordable and gives you a feel for the project. Then you can upgrade to the fancy materials :)

My first year making peg dolls. I do candy corn for peg dolls. The dolls come out looking great on my table.

[@margaritah2876]

Thank you very much for your tutorials :). I just made the autumn doll and love it !

[@PepperandPine]

Oh yay!!!

[@CrabbyCatandCoffeeChat]

Nice. Very cute!

[@j.m.griffin1798]

Awesome! Fall is my favorite time of year so that doll is perfect!

[@PirateSamiah]

ohhhh i love them all... one day i will actually get around to making ours.

[@PepperandPine]

Well, I wanted to surprise you, but the kids and I made a simple set for Logan :)

[@KaraFleck]

These turned out so beautiful! LOVE!

[@becomingbethany]

I LOVE these!!!!

[@PepperandPine]

Awe, thank you Linda!!

[@becomingbethany]

Pepper and Pine My 4yo daughter watched this with me and she is SO motivated to make some on her own. She said she wants to do it “all by herself” 💕

[@PepperandPine]

She just might be able to :)

[@tink268]

😍😍😍

[@cllnplmr]

New. Subby Here! Heather from Kneady Homesteader sent me! She just LOVES your channel and vids!!!

[@PepperandPine]

Hello Coco! Thank you and welcome!! I just watched her latest video and was glowing with happiness over all the beautiful words she said. Thank you for introducing yourself. I might have missed her video otherwise :)

[@ozbelltemp]

Did you do a unit study on the seasons?

[@flourishing.flowers6925]

Lovely ^_^

[@sereniticat2]

Hi! These are wonderful! Do you seal these with anything?

[@allentatyana3741]

Where did you got non porous palette? Thank you.

[@PepperandPine]

I think it was a cutting mat for a die cutting machine, but you could use any piece of plastic. Some crafters use the plastic packaging from supplies.

[@allentatyana3741]

Pepper and Pine thank you.

[@allentatyana3741]

Also, what shimmery spray did you use?. Thank you.

[@PepperandPine]

I use Perfect Pearls spray, but you can also make your own with the powder.

[@allentatyana3741]

Pepper and Pine ok. Thank you.

[@djbigdaff122]

Does the shimmer spray rub off on little hands when played with and what brand is it thankyou x

[@PepperandPine]

It hasn't for us, But I'm sure it's possible it does over time. If you seal it, it's less likely to happen.

[@rsmrycross]

i recommend the uniball signo white gel pen for the white details. it goes on opaque and would be perfect for those snowflakes!www.amazon.com/Uni-Ball-153-Signo-Broad-Point/dp/B00KK6X7CW/ref=sr_1_4?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1507225053&sr=1-4&keywords=signo+gel+pen

[@PepperandPine]

That's a great idea, Grace :) I have this same white gel pen and didn't think to use it. I get mixed results with it just using on paper. Maybe my pen is old?

[@rsmrycross]

i use it a lot in my illustrations and i just have to go slooow with it. and sometimes i go over the same spot twice or even a few times. they're definitely better than the white gelly roll pens though for sure.

[@allentatyana3741]

Opaque white spray is not awaleble. Is it any other white O can use? Like watercolor tube white? Thank you.

[@PepperandPine]

Yeah, you can use white acrylic paint and water it down.

[@allentatyana3741]

Pepper and Pine and it will go well with ink paints? Thank you.

[@vadymvolodko7252]

I am pretty sure you can still buy handbook with all details you need on woodprix.
