Adventures in Anthroposophic Education Series: The 9 & 12 Year Change

The 9 and 12 Year Changes: Crossing the Major Threshold of Child Development with Joy and Sanity. Presented by DWS Education Director Charlie Orphanides. Around the age of nine, the child begins to cross an important threshold, awakening to a deeper sense of self and experiencing the world with new eyes. No longer fully merged with their surroundings, they begin to perceive themselves as separate beings, sometimes fearful, sometimes critical, as they enter their newfound individuality. By twelve, this budding self-awareness blossoms into a search for identity, accompanied by passionate feelings and a growing interest in peers and the wider world. The heart still guides them, but the light of independent thought begins to emerge, seeking meaning and understanding. This is a time of great transformation, as the child journeys from the dreamy unity of early childhood toward the unfolding of inner individuality and adolescence.
