Summary/Abstract: The preschool period becomes a favorable ground for the development of emotional and social skills. We consider that the educational and family environment play an important role in the development of these competencies. Emotional and social skills play an important role in the child's further development. A good ability to understand emotions, self-knowledge, the environment in which and how they occur develops empathy and at the same time allows the preschooler to relate effectively to those around him, to respond appropriately to the emotions of others and to adapt more easily to the social environment. The main purpose of this research refers to the increased efficiency of both the role play and the artistic-plastic activities in the socio-emotional development of preschoolers. By introducing role-playing games in the didactic activity through stories and artistic-plastic activities, educational actions are initiated, the results of which are recorded and processed in order to demonstrate their value. The results of this study showed that the use of artistic and plastic activities as well as role play contributed to managing their own emotions, to understanding the need to respect the feelings and feelings of others, developing the ability to relate to others, improving skills, communication and self-expression in the development of self-confidence, the development of confidence in individual abilities, the development of self-control identifying possible solutions to problems such as anger, disappointment, sadness.
