Abstract

Background: The ability of preschool children to interact socially with their friends requires good communication skills. Communicating verbally requires mature language skills in terms of phonology, semantics, morphology, syntax and pragmatics. When preschool children interact with their friends using verbal communication, of course, each of them should take turns conveying messages verbally. Turn-taking skills between two or more preschool children and preschool children with the people around them will continue to develop their abilities by frequently carrying out social interactions that they build. The more often and skillfully preschool children carry out social interactions with other people around them, of course, the better their turn-taking skills will be. Therefore, parents and families need to frequently train their children's social interaction and turn-taking skills..
