YOUR TASK is to write a report in which analyses the stimulus for an educational game for five year old children that promotes human emotion and empathy, and evaluate its appropriateness for the Innisfail Community Childcare Centre. The report should convey to the reader, your knowledge and understanding of the social and emotional development of five year old children and the significance of games and play that promote this development.

1. In the planning of your educational game, consider the social and cultural factors which influence the social and emotional development of children.

2. Discuss the components necessary for the forming of successful relationships in children and the skills needed for a five year old to be a good friend.

3. State the significant developments that occur for five year olds and how adults and carers can support children to develop these.

4. Investigate the challenges faced by five year olds in developing pro-social behaviours.

5. Explain the importance of games and play as a way to express emotions and give examples of how five year olds often express these.

6. Evaluate how your specific game chosen would be appropriate for the Innisfail Community Childcare Centre.

7. Explain how adults who parent, care for and work with children could encourage the positive and healthy social and emotional development of five year olds.
