The main problem preschoolers have with making friends, they want everything on their terms. It's hard to get along when you're selective about sharing and wail when things don't go your way. three and four-year-olds like the idea of having friends, but sometimes their strong emotions and temperament get in the way.

Fortunately, you can help your child foster connections simply consider his personality when you're matchmaking.

• Some children such as three years old approach a social situation like its a full contact sport.So try to set up play dates with other kids who are physical as he is, and hold them at the park or in a play gym where there 's a lot of room to run around. Even then, it's a good idea to watch the two little wrestlers closely for signs that things may be morphing from playful into hurtful, such as angry faces or lack of laughter. Catching a problem before it gets too big to control is key, If you're unsure, ask Is everyone having fun now? Unless you get two enthusiastic responses, intervene to help them find a different, less aggressive game.

• Does your child treat her peers more like minions? Tyrannical tendencies are common among preschoolers. The ability to understand someone else's perspective is so limited at this age it shocks her that the other kid isn't thinking exactly the way. If the playdate is at your house, put away toys that may be difficult to share, and coax your child out of me zone by asking her to think about toys and activities that might interest her friend. From those, suggest that she offer her friend a choice of two activities to get started. ask her, '' when violet comes over, what will you say?

C. THE SKIRT CLINGER

• If your child's arms tend to remain firmly wrapped around your legs, resist the urge to pry his little fingers off and thrust him into the fray. You want to work with a child's natural tendencies. This is not a throw him off the cliff situation. So think in terms of gentle madges. Set up a one on one playdate with a kind and outgoing friend and brief your child on how it will unfold. Then stay as close by as he wants, though you might casually move to the other side of the room if he seems relaxed enough.

He needs his time. He'll sit and watch at first, but eventually, when he sees another kid being a superhero or something, he'll jump right in. It's fun to see him progress from being super shy to acting more confident and social.
