Abstract

This study explores how body awareness education in early childhood is culturally constructed and pedagogically practiced through local wisdom in Jambi City. Body awareness begins with physical recognition and motor coordination, children's understanding of body boundaries, self-protection, dignity, and the social and cultural meaning of the body. Using a phenomenological approach, This study examines the lived experiences of three early childhood teachers at Pembina 1 Kindergarten in Jambi City and three early childhood teachers from RA DWP Raudhatul Athfal in Jambi City. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, lesson observations, and document analysis over a six-month period. The research findings reveal three interrelated themes: teachers' understanding of body awareness as an embodied moral and spiritual education, the integration of Jambi Malay local wisdom and Islamic values ​​into cultural pedagogical practices, and the challenges teachers experience in negotiating cultural taboos, limited learning resources, and curriculum constraints. The results indicate that local wisdom-based learning creates a culturally meaningful space in introducing body safety, self-esteem, and social ethics to children. Theoretically, this research enriches the study of culturally responsive early childhood education by positioning body awareness as a pedagogical and socio-cultural phenomenon shaped by local values, religious narratives, and everyday educational practices.

Abstract

Parenting plays a crucial role in helping parents understand and apply child-rearing practices that align with each child’s unique characteristics. Parenting education provided to families in Jambi City, Jambi Province, is expected to enhance parental knowledge in childcare while also serving as an initial preventive measure against child abuse and domestic violence. This study aims to analyse parents’ perceptions of early childhood sex education. A qualitative approach with a descriptive-analytical design was employed, using observation, interviews, and documentation as data collection techniques. The findings reveal that Parenting education is a fundamental need for parents in shaping children’s character and supporting their development. Appropriate knowledge and skills in childcare are essential to address the challenges of an ever-changing era. Therefore, a holistic and systematic approach is required to strengthen parents’ understanding of effective Parenting concepts.
