Shangilia Day care center

As an organization working with orphans and vulnerable children we realize that during early childhood, children are learning to get along with others. Early social skill is important in children's overall development as children build a sense of their abilities at a very early age. In addition, social interactions play an important role in other developmental domains.

For example, children use social interactions as a way to practice language and problem solving skills. In fact, children who interact most often with peers are the children who have the best-developed language skills. And, of course children enjoy interacting with peers as other children are more likely to share the same interests and have similar abilities. When children have healthy social interaction skills we find that by age three they are interacting more with peers than with the teachers in the classroom. That is why the organization built Shangilia Day care as shown below.
