Rainbow Gnomes, Waldorf Gnomes Days of the Week

These are my Waldorf gnomes. Because my background as a Waldorf teacher gives me ideas, I made these Waldorf gnomes. They are used for setting a seasonal table for example. They represent days of the week, and each has a particular color.

The colors are: Monday - purple, Tuesday - red, Wednesday - yellow, Thursday - orange, Friday - green, Saturday - blue, Sunday - white. 
Waldorf dolls have no face, so the kids can imagine their expression.

Waldorf Gnomes Activities 

  • Using a different color for each day can help you in many activities. On the other hand, kids love the colors. 
  • You can dress in the color of the day. 
  • Following the color of the day, the kids can choose easily their clothes and they will learn the colors quickly. 
  • Use the gnomes to tell or to invent stories, use them in math or when you read a picture book. Make them your partner. 
  • Ask your child to find through the house or outside things in the color of the day. 
  • Kids will learn easily the days because they associate each day with a color. 


Each gnome doll has 8.66 inches (22 cm).
