Emotional and Social Development


One of the most important benefits of preschool is that it teaches kids how to socialize. More specifically, children learn how to show respect – for adults, other children, and their environment. They also learn how to take turns, cooperate, and share with others, as well as problem-solve and comprise during stressful situations. At age 2, most children exhibit parallel play, which is the ability to play near each other rather than with each other. By age 5, most children seek and enjoy friendships. Preschool offers a structured environment where children can learn how to play together in a socially appropriate and effective manner, as well as develop social and emotional intelligence.
Preschool also teaches children important lessons in independence. In addition to preparing children for the separation from mom and dad during kindergarten, preschool offers a safe, fun and exploratory space for children to develop their self-confidence and sense of self.
