The purpose of this thesis is to gain insight into educators? views and work with circle time in preschool. To find out, I have referred to the following questions: How is your circle time performed in preschool? What objectives have teachers with the circle time? What impact has your circle time for the children in preschool?I have chosen to carry out qualitative interviews with three preschool teachers. After the interviews, I compared the educators? response to previous research.The survey shows that the circle time is one of the day´s highlights for preschool children. It also shows that the most important thing with circle time is to create community, security in the group, and a fun time together. The educators also believe that circle time is an important part in the children's learning process, especially when it comes to social learning. In my study, I can see that the content in the circle time has not changed much during the preschool development; the circle time consists mostly of roll call, rhyme, rhymes and songs.Keywords: preschool, circle time, educator, children, circle
