I just found your channel and find it very informative and helpful. I wonder if you could give some concrete tips and recommendation how to start such a circle time with my own children (2 and 5) when never introduced to it before? They love free play but I think they’ll benefit from this, I just don’t know how to start 😊 Thank you!
Hi Sofia! Thank you so much for reaching out! I’d love to help you with this. I actually have an entire blog post dedicated to how I set up our Circletime rhythm on my blog - www.beautifullighthome.com . There are a few posts, but one is title “Our Waldorf Circletime Rhythm” and that should help point you in the right direction. beautifullighthome.com/our-waldorf-circle-time-rhythm/
Hi Alice! I apologize for the delay in responding. I totally understand the feeling of being unnatural. For me, when I shift my focus away from being a “teacher” and I focus more on the fact that this is a point of connection for me and my kiddos, it helps us all loosen up a bit and make it seem more natural, if that makes sense.
This is so helpful. Thank you so much
You’re welcome! I try to post our circletime each month!

Thanks for demonstrating how circle time works in modern home setting! I always feel unnatural when doing circle time with my kids.
