Thanks for joining me here in the studio. This month we are taking a close look at the Michealmas Festival. The story of St. George and the Dragon, and Archangel Michael. With my Margaret Hodges book, St. George and the Dragon to inspire us, we made felt banners as visual imagery.
If you are wondering where I got the large felt, it is actually a Christmas tree skirt. My mom picked it up at Michael’s on deep discount. I had no idea what I was saving it for, but now I know. The white felt is embedded with glitter, which bounces light nicely. I made three banner flags. One for the kitchen as you see. One hanging on the boys bedroom door, and a small one for our nature table. I got the fantastic verse below from my homeschool consultant and the Thinking, Feeling, Willing program, through Waldorf Essentials.
Brave Saint Michael is my guide
As free and fearless forth I ride
With courage of Saint George of old
I dare to fight fierce dragons bold.
