Abstract

General Background: Social-emotional development is a key aspect of early childhood growth, requiring children to interact effectively with peers and their surrounding community. Specific Background: Activities that simulate real-life social interactions, such as Market Day, can provide valuable opportunities for practicing social skills. Knowledge Gap: While experiential learning activities are widely discussed, empirical evidence on Market Day’s role in fostering social interaction among very young learners remains limited. Aims: This study investigates the significant relationship between Market Day activities and social interaction skills in children aged 3–4 years at KB-TK Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Solokuro. Results: Using a pre-test and post-test design with 20 participants, data were analyzed through normality and homogeneity tests, followed by a paired t-test in IBM SPSS 26.0. Findings showed a significance value of 0.000 ≤ 0.05 and Thitung (9.890) > Ttabel (2.101), indicating a statistically significant improvement in social interaction. Novelty: This study provides quantitative evidence of Market Day’s role in enhancing early childhood social skills in a formal educational setting. Implications: The results suggest integrating structured experiential activities into early childhood curricula to promote social development. Highlights: Quantitative proof of Market Day fostering social interaction in young children. Employs pre-test and post-test design with robust statistical analysis. Supports integrating experiential learning into early childhood curricula. Keywords: Market Day, Early Childhood, Social Interaction, Experiential Learning, Preschool Education

Abstract

General background: Early childhood is a critical period for language development, and exposure to foreign languages, particularly English, provides essential foundations for future communication. Specific background: In Indonesia, English is introduced as a foreign language from an early age, yet many schools still face challenges in implementation due to varying teacher competencies and parental awareness. Knowledge gap: Limited studies comprehensively describe the structured application of English learning in early childhood within bilingual school contexts. Aims: This study examines the implementation of English learning for children aged 5–6 years at The Naff A Creative & Fun School, focusing on teaching strategies, teacher competencies, and children’s achievements. Results: Data from structured and non-participant observations as well as semi-structured interviews show that children acquire basic vocabulary (colors, numbers, fruits, animals, etc.) and develop confidence in simple communication. Teachers play a central role through consistent routines, communication books, and bilingual classroom practices. Novelty: This study highlights how structured daily habituation combined with teacher preparation effectively fosters early English exposure in a playful yet systematic manner. Implications: Findings emphasize the importance of integrating bilingual practices into early childhood curricula and strengthening teacher qualifications to support sustainable language acquisition. Highlights: English learning at early age benefits from daily habituation. Teacher competence and creativity are crucial for successful practice. Bilingual strategies strengthen children’s vocabulary and confidence. Keywords: Early Childhood, English Learning, Bilingual Education, Teacher Competence, Language
