We don't do circle time at this point. I don't have the space set up yet the way it needs to be, and won't be able to until our family moves out of the basement suite in our home, hahaha.
When we do, I will be keeping it short and sweet, since my preferred age group is under 3 and the attention span is not really there yet between 1 and 3.
So I will do calendar (song about the months of the year or days of the week, etc). A story/song/poem about what we are talking about that week or month. And if they are still involved, or for those who are, an activity like puppets or a puzzle, etc.
