There seems to exist a broad agreement that friendship plays an important role in children’s lives. This article explores the origins of friendships between one-year-olds in a Norwegian barnehage (Early Childhood Education and Care). This study through video observations established that young children utilize many different strategies to participate in each other’s life-worlds. Here, we emphasize five of the strategies that seem to be particularly apparent in our data; all of them are the results of encounters between the children: body contact, group glee, vocalizations, humour, and joining in. Friendship may be considered as a construction, built up by many encounters, where the children experience some sort of a mutual ‘we’. Some of the encounters between the children, although of short duration, could be regarded as their participation in each other’s life-worlds, and as such, form the ‘bricks’ in the construction of future friendship relations.
