Grown-ups will support children’s developing social and emotional skills by scaffolding them in an authentic play setting. They will help guide social negotiations in moments of conflict, while children will practice important skills like labeling and working through emotions, building frustration tolerance, and learning social habits such as turn-taking. Most importantly, children will discover what it means to respect themselves and others.
