Emotional intelligence and social skills

Emotional intelligence and social skills

Social skills are key to the emotional development of children. Through toys and games, we can support their interaction.

In the age group of 7 to 9 years, it is important for children to develop not only their emotional intelligence but also their ability to establish quality interpersonal relationships. By learning cooperation, empathy, and active listening through games and activities, we can strengthen their social skills. This way, we help them engage better in a group, which positively influences their school environment and personal life.
