<![CDATA[Humans, as social beings, require other people in their lives. Children between the ages of 5 and 6 years are capable of playing with their peers, recognizing their friends' emotions and responding spontaneously and sharing them with others. However, five children in class B at Mawaddah Warahmah Kindergarten have been unable to work in teams, engage with peers, or display the ability to work together. They were assessed for needed support with social emotional development. The flag relay game has features that can help children at that age develop socially and emotionally. The classroom action research was undertaken to enhance early childhood socio-emotional development through the use of a flag relay activity with five children as subjects. Data were obtained through observation, performance and documentation. Through a series of activities, it was discovered that children's social-emotional development increased, as seen by the ability of children to form groups, connect with peers, and collaborate in the cycle III. The study's findings indicate that the flag relay game can promote the social and emotional development of Grade B children at Aceh Besar's Mawaddah Warahmah Kindergarten. It is suggested that this flag relay game be adopted as an outdoor learning activity to help children develop their social, emotional and macro motor skills.
