Problem
You've seen the circle in the wellness wheel and in the talking circle. Circles are a significant symbol in many cultures. With no end and no beginning, they represent cycles, the repeating patterns in life that occur again and again. They can also symbolize wholeness or completeness. Reflection Take a moment to think about 'Circle Time' in a child care setting. Why is the circle used in child care? How do children benefit from the use of the circle? How does the early childhood educator benefit from using the circle with children?
