The anthroposophical way of life: Do POLOLOs fit in?

Rudolf Steiner is a household name for many. He became known worldwide as the founder of anthroposophy, school founder, artist and social reformer. He was a lateral thinker in his time and made a lot of difference. Waldorf education focuses on the child, the individual.

Waldorf and POLOLOs, do they go together?

The anthroposophical way of life is about the origin, the source. When clothing or shoes are made, it has to fit right from the start. Starting from animal husbandry, agriculture, right up to the production of the product. All are important parameters so that raw materials for clothing and shoes have the best conditions for the creation of non-toxic clothing made of e.g. cotton, hemp, wool or leather. And that is exactly what we care about.
When producing POLOLOs, attention is also paid to the highest quality and to ensuring that the individual steps come together sustainable and pollutant-free product in which our children can feel comfortable.

Shoes and clothing for well-being

Shoes and clothing for people and especially children are intended to promote well-being. They can only do this if some criteria met are.
Breathable clothing is important for proper temperature regulation. It prevents heat build-up or hypothermia. Clothing and shoes made from natural fibers are controlled organic animal husbandry (kbT) or controlled organic cultivation (kbA), such as leather, wool, linen, silk and cotton, have the property of regulating body temperature.

Optimum freedom of movement and comfort in everyday life

For children, the clothing and wearing of shoes conveys the Perception of your own body. They provide support and boundaries. In addition to the material, the fit and quality of clothing are also important. If clothing or shoes are too big or uncomfortable, the child can only feel the limit to a limited extent. And when clothes slip, you're constantly trying to get them back into the right position. The size and quality of clothing and shoes therefore plays an important role.
The way food is The fit has to be right, sleeves that are too long hinder the child while playing. This restricts freedom of movement. Shoes that are too big or too tight impair the child's ability to explore, play, run around, climb, jump and run. It cannot concentrate on what is important and is distracted from the game. Clothing that is too tight is also counterproductive. This means that your own impulses when playing and your interests cannot be pursued unhindered. Clothing and shoes should allow for optimal freedom of movement and comfort in everyday life.

All of this fits in very well with the anthroposophical way of life and POLOLOs are therefore good quality companions and ensure security and ease of movement.
