Abstract :The interaction of mind and environment are important in the formation of learning, based on the theories of scientists such as Piaget, Vygotsky, Bandura and Montessori. The potential of the mind is shaped, diversified and revealed by the environment. This study was produced from the results of the Erasmus+ K201 project coded 2018-1-IT02-KA201-048515, named PEARL \"Emotional Empathic Proximal Learning-Educational Environment\". This article aims to reveal the effect of PEARL \"Emotional Empathic Proximal Learning-Educational Environment\" on the social-emotional development of children aged 3-4. The study was conducted with the non-selective semi-experimental research model with the final test control group. The characteristic of this experimental model is the creation of randomly determined experimental and control groups and the determination of the effectiveness of the applied model by the final test. Children from Italy, Turkey, Spain and Lithuania, which are PEARL project partners, participated in the research. A total of 195 children were recruited for robotic activities and 207 children for non-robotic activities in schools where the project partners volunteered in their countries. The PEARL Education Model was applied to the children participating in the study before the assessment. After the applications, each child was assessed with the Child Observation Forms by their teachers with the help of video recordings captured. The mean score of the Child Observation Form was obtained by averaging the total and individual country scores. It has been detected that the average in all robotic group children is higher than the average in the non-robotic group. These practical findings confirm the project hypothesis – \"Group activities enriched with robotic coding activities, develop children’s social skills, cooperation skills, and ability to understand and express emotions\".Keywords : okul öncesi eğitim, okul öncesi dönem, okul öncesi dönemde robotik kodlama, sosyal duygusal gelişim
