Little attention has been given to conflict resolution in preschools. This paper explores the types of conflict resolution strategies used and thought were effective in early childhood classrooms. This paper provides schools and parents with information, suggestions, and activities that can increase awareness of the nature of conflicts, conflict-resolution strategies, and management of conflict and crisis situations. It focuses on developing a positive school climate that enhances intergroup relationships, encourages proactive recognition of potential problems, and provides suggestions for management of conflicts among children.
