Social & emotional development goes hand-in-hand. When children play, they learn to regulate their emotions & feelings towards others in social situations. Social development affects a child’s specific responses, reactions, techniques & strategies used in social situations like playing at the park or doing group activities at school. Language & attitude development can also be promoted through play. Interactive games such as scrabble, Uno etc teach children skills such as taking turns, teamwork, handling losses and playing fair which are crucial for social interactions. Open-ended pretend play toys keep young minds active and encourage them to imagine themselves in various situations which helps social development.
