Bullying is a quite common problem. “You can’t play with us” or “we can only be two in this game” are examples on how bullying can present itself in a preschool environment. Bullying in preschools is a fairly new research field and the majority of the research done around interventions related to bullying is done on children over the age of six. Therefore the aim with this study was to identify interventions that are used or recommended in preschools to support children in need of special support in relation to bullying. Ten articles were identified through a systematic literature review. The result show that both the child who is being bullied and the child who bullies are seen as children in need of special support, both of these children need help with interactions. The identified interventions proved that bullying is created by a situation in a specific context; no specific child is the problem and therefore interventions can be directed at different levels. Furthermore, the teacher and the environment were seen as two key factors when it comes to interventions.
