The development of social skills in children is fundamental for their integral education. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Andean motor storytelling workshops on the social skills of 5-year-old children. A quantitative approach with an explanatory pre-experimental cross-sectional design was used. Data were collected through observation, using a 45-item checklist of six dimensions of social skills, adapted from the instrument proposed by Goldstein. For hypothesis testing, the Wilcoxon rank test was used, the result of which showed a significant improvement in social skills, with a p-value of less than 0.001. Descriptive findings also confirmed that the 27 children who received the treatment experienced a positive change. This shows that the Andean motor storytelling workshops have a favorable impact on the development of social skills in children in the unit of analysis.
