Understanding Social Development in 3 to 4-Year-Olds

Discover the key social development milestones for children aged 3 to 4 years. At age 3, children start to show fewer temper tantrums, are eager to help adults, and demonstrate cooperation and concern for others. Their play is often parallel and unstructured, with sharing being more common but not always preferred. By age 4, companionship becomes essential, leading to preferences for same-sex friends and an increase in cooperative play. Understanding these changes can help caregivers foster a supportive and engaging environment for young children.
