Abstract
Purpose: This study was to investigate the difference in leadership skill depending on the preference of risky play in Korean children.
 Methodology: In order to archive that purpose, we have collected data from 381(215 male and 166 female) Korean elementary school students, upon distributing papers of questionnaire which is composed of Preference to Playing Forms Scale for Children and Scale to Research and Evaluate Youth Leadership Life Skills Development and performed statistical analysis using SPSS.
 Main Findings: The children who prefer risky play more showed significantly higher scores in all sub-factors of leadership skill such as communication, decision making, human relationship, solving problem, positive belief and consideration than the children who prefer risky play less.
 Implications: This can mean that the leadership skill of the children who prefer risky play more is superior to that of the children who prefer it less. Therefore it can be suggested that children’s participating in well-controlled risky play be an effective method to develop their leadership skill.
