Abstract

Social development is a very important aspect instilled in children from an early age. Social development is the growth of children in terms of their readiness to interact with peers, the community in the environment of parents, siblings and other communities. This article is a literature review and analysis of several previous studies on improving children’s social skills through playing during the Covid-19 pandemic at home. The findings obtained in previous research show that the use of the play method is in line with the increase in the development of social aspects in children. Because through these games, they can train cooperation, socialize, obey the rules in the game, and so on. This paper aims to describe or conceptually describe the role of play to improve social skills in children during the covid-19 pandemic. Results of the research analyzed in this article are three research articles that reveal that children playing with traditional games can develop their social skills. Therefore parents at home should support children to play with traditional games and facilitate them in the area and the games facilities or tools. It is hoped that there will be further research that describes this problem more broadly.
