Kemahiran sosial merupakan elemen penting dalam perkembangan kanak-kanak prasekolah, memainkan peranan kritikal dalam membentuk keupayaan mereka untuk berinteraksi, bekerjasama, dan memahami perasaan orang lain. Penyelidikan ini menumpukan kepada kepentingan permainan kreatif sebagai medium untuk mengembangkan kemahiran sosial dalam kalangan kanak-kanak prasekolah. Permainan kreatif memberikan peluang kepada kanak-kanak untuk mengekspresikan diri, mengatasi konflik, dan membina hubungan interpersonal yang sihat. Kajian ini akan membincangkan teori-teori perkembangan sosial kanak-kanak dan bagaimana permainan kreatif dapat diintegrasikan dalam kurikulum prasekolah untuk meningkatkan kemahiran sosial. Melalui analisis literatur dan kajian kes, kertas konsep ini akan menonjolkan bukti-bukti empirikal yang menyokong keberkesanan permainan kreatif dalam memupuk kemahiran komunikasi, kerjasama, dan empati. Implikasi kajian ini adalah untuk memberi cadangan kepada pendidik prasekolah dan pembuat dasar tentang strategi terbaik dalam mengaplikasikan permainan kreatif sebagai alat pembangunan sosial yang berkesan.
