ABSTRACT: Early childhood education plays a critical role in developing social competence, which is essential for children's overall development and future social interactions. This study examines how early childhood education programs influence social competence in young children. The objectives are to (1) assess improvements in children's social skills, (2) evaluate the integration of social competence-building activities in early childhood education curricula, and (3) examine changes in children's social interactions and relationships. A survey design is justified as it enables comprehensive data collection on the role of early childhood education in developing social competence. A purposive sample of 120 children from preschools in Enugu State was used. The case study focuses on a preschool known for its emphasis on social competence development. Findings indicated significant improvements in children's social skills, the effectiveness of social competence-building activities, and positive changes in children's social interactions and relationships. Recommendations included integrating social competence-building activities into early childhood curricula and providing ongoing professional development for educators to support children's social competence development.
