  2. new friends which means to be social, they learn colors, plants, shapes, they have theier fun and excercise. its kinda common sense. they are little kids.

  3. They can learn social skills from interacting with other children. They have to learn how to ask to play with the other children, how to include others into their games, how to be kind to people, how to talk to people and what to do when someone is horrible to them

    They can use their imaginations, which is useful for lessons where they are asked to write something such as a story. They use their imaginations in the games they play in the playground

    Their vocabulary is increased, and I do not mean by the number of swear words and rude words they pick up from other children. They can also learn more about sentence structure from talking to the other children and having to form sentences

    Their hand-eye co-ordination is increased if they play things such as basketball
