The First Three Years of the Child: How Children Learn to Walk, Speak and Think

By Karl Konig

A classic text exploring the first three years of a child's life from Karl K nig - physician, anthroposophist and founder of the Camphill movement - which offers valuable insights into early years' development for educators, medical professionals and carers.

Karl K nig examines the three major achievements that occur during children's first three years: learning to walk, speak and think. These are the three basic faculties that make us human, and their acquisition, Konig argues, is 'an act of grace' in every child. He goes on to provide a detailed analysis of this extraordinarily complex process.

This Karl K nig Archive edition now includes extensive notes and a new introduction by Dr Jan Goeschel, founding President of the Camphill Academy in North America, which puts this well-known text in the context of modern-day research.
