The purpose of this paper is to show how pre-school teachers think they can offer children a well-balanced daily rhythm of play in a well-arranged physical environment. In order to investigate this, I have used interview as a method of collecting data. The interviews were done at two municipal pre-schools in a town in Sweden. The theory I have used to analyze the collected data is norm-critical perspective. The result shows for instance that pre-school teachers are experiencing a clear connection between a well-arranged physical environment, and the opportunity to a well-balanced daily rhythm. The result also shows that the pre-school teachers think that they must create conditions in the environment, so the intensity of the children´s play can vary, and for the environment to offer a space for recovery. In their view this also creates the opportunity for the children to get a well-balanced daily rhythm.
