They grow in confidence as they are able to make friends by themselves and play with other children. They show social skills, for example they share toys and care for each other. Strong emotions are still felt and quarrels and temper tantrums occur at times. At this time children start to play with members of their own sex, which may contradict to their understanding of gender roles.
D2 The expected age of social development of children aged 5 years are: they play with each other and other children without help from adults, they are more independent, they are able to communicate feelings and wishes, they also understands the need for rules. They understand the difference between right and wrong. They also makes strong friendships, they are able to get dressed by themselves without no adult help unless the cloth is difficult to wear.
