Is it correct to ask someone to go in circles? For example during a kid's fun activity we ask them to go in circles. I hope you understand what I am trying to say.

It would be more natural to express how you want them to move. Are they going to walk, run, skip, or something else?

No, I think you misunderstood. I apologise. I mean like twirling or gyrate standing at one place.

That is spinning, then. Going in circles would be like your cat going around your legs while you're giving it its food.

You could tell them to turn round and round.

Tell them to spin around [on the spot].
