Abstract

Play is an essential component of early childhood life, functioning both as a learning medium and as a strategy to stimulate children’s holistic development. This study aims to examine the role of play in supporting the comprehensive growth and development of children in Islamic Early Childhood Education (PIAUD). The research employed a library research method with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected from various sources, including books, scientific journals, research articles, and other relevant academic documents related to play and early childhood development. Data analysis was conducted using content analysis techniques, which involved collecting, reviewing, and interpreting literature related to play and child development in early childhood education. The findings of the study indicate that play has a significant and multidimensional role in supporting children’s physical, motor, cognitive, language, social-emotional, creative, as well as moral and spiritual development. In the context of Islamic Early Childhood Education (PIAUD), play also serves as an effective medium for instilling Islamic values. Various educational play activities, such as learning Hijaiyah letters, practicing daily prayers, exploring stories of the Prophets, and engaging in games that promote Islamic character building, contribute to the development of children’s moral and spiritual foundations. Therefore, play can be considered an effective and essential learning strategy to support optimal, balanced, and holistic child development in accordance with the objectives of Islamic Early Childhood Education (PIAUD).

Abstract

Language development is one of the important aspects that must be optimally stimulated in early childhood education. One learning method that can support children's language development is the storytelling method. This study aimed to analyze the benefits of storytelling methods on the language development of children aged 5–6 years at PAUD Lagan Pertiwi, Lubuk Lagan Village, Seluma Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving the principal, teachers, and children aged 5–6 years. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that storytelling methods using picture storybooks provided significant benefits in improving children's listening skills, enriching vocabulary, enhancing speaking skills, increasing the ability to express opinions, improving the ability to retell stories, and strengthening children's self-confidence in communication. The success of storytelling activities was supported by attractive picture storybooks, teachers’ storytelling skills, children's enthusiasm, school support, and a conducive learning environment. However, several obstacles were identified, including differences in children's language abilities, limited concentration spans, low self-confidence among some children, limited storybook variations, and classroom management challenges. Therefore, storytelling methods can be recommended as an effective learning strategy to optimize language development in early childhood.
