• The present study examines whether musical games and role-play activities can enhance children's self-concept and ameliorate peer relationships. Participants, 11 boys and 9 girls, between 7 and 8 years, attending the second grade at an inclusive primary mainstream school of a suburb of Athens. These children were selected because they presented poor interpersonal skills and relationship difficulties with peers. The project lasted 8 weeks and involved three teachers of the school. The results revealed that these activities cultivated children's social skills. However, the lasting effects need to be estimated.
