Three year old should be playing if the child is in an age appropriate setting . Regardless of the setting there are certain skills that a 3 year old should have :here are a few :

• Child should be able to was her hands by  putting soap on her hands ,rubbing them together and also washing the back of her hand .She should be able to dry her hands.

• She should be able to dress her self ,with the ability to put her dress over her head 
• She should be able to put her shoes on her feet 
• She should be verbal with the ability to say I need to use the bath room
