“Emotional well-being and social competence provide a strong foundation for emerging cognitive abilities. Together they are the bricks and mortar that comprise the foundation of human development.”
(National Scientific Council on the Developing Child, 2007)

Emotional Competence
• Refers to one's ability to express or release one's inner feelings (emotions). It implies an ease around others and determines one's ability to effectively and successfully express how they feel.
![Page 5: Supporting the Social, Emotional and Behavioral Development / Health of Young Children Laura J. Johns, Ph.D.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032313/56649e725503460f94b717c2/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Social Competence
• Refers to a person's ability to get along with other people. A child's social competence is affected by how well he/ she communicates with other children and with adults.
• A child's view of
herself/himself in relation to her family, peers, and the wider world also affect social competence.
