In many kindergartens, the morning circle is firmly established. It symbolizes the shared start to the day. The routine remains as consistent as possible in the spirit of a ritual, with active, movement-rich elements alternating with calm and reflective ones. This volume offers you numerous activities in the following areas: introduction, greetings, and other rituals; games and actions for the beginning and conclusion of the morning circle; attendance of the children and the annual cycle; nature and knowledge; seasonally appropriate suggestions for playful expansion of factual knowledge on topics such as snow and bird feeding; language and communication; playful exercises to expand vocabulary and speaking skills in the form of finger plays, poems, and rhymes; emotionality; suggestions around the themes of senses and feelings, including engagement with (inter-)religious references.
