Abstract

The efforts made by early childhood education teachers to address the risks associated with "Strawberry Generation" qualities are the subject of this study. The study aims to investigate the methods teachers use to counteract the detrimental impacts of these traits and encourage young children's development of good character. Data were gathered through interviews and observations using the qualitative research method. A sample of early childhood education teachers actively tackling the Strawberry Generation phenomena participated in the study. The study's conclusions point to several efficient tactics educators employ to counter the risks posed by Strawberry Generation features. These tactics include encouraging active student participation, using active learning techniques, acting as positive role models, storytelling and narratives, working with parents, and using active learning methodologies. With the help of these techniques, educators can help kids comprehend the drawbacks of Strawberry Generation features and encourage the development of good character traits as alternatives. The study emphasizes how crucial parent-teacher cooperation is in overcoming the difficulties brought on by Strawberry Generation features. The results highlight the importance of regular efforts, communication, and support from parents and teachers in assisting children in developing desirable character traits. This study adds to the corpus of knowledge by shedding light on early childhood educators' role in mitigating the risks associated with Strawberry Generation features. The findings have practical ramifications for educators, parents, and governments interested in early childhood education. Early childhood education teachers can be crucial in fostering children's excellent character characteristics and mitigating the harmful effects of the Strawberry Generation phenomena by using appropriate tactics.

Abstract

In the era of globalization, proficiency in international languages is a key factor for competitiveness and cross-cultural collaboration. Malaysia stands out as a significant global example by integrating bilingual education into the National Preschool Standard Curriculum (Kurikulum Standard Prasekolah Kebangsaan—KSPK) from the preschool level. This study analyzes the regulations, implementation, and challenges of the bilingual program at Happy Hive Malaysia as a learning model relevant to international contexts.Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through interviews with two educators, participatory observations, and documentation, then analyzed thematically. The main findings reveal that KSPK provides a strong foundation for early childhood language education, while Happy Hive successfully implements a balanced bilingual approach supported by interactive methods and educational media. The challenges encountered—including variations in children’s language proficiency, speech delays, and limited resources—were addressed through teacher training and adjustments to teaching methods. This study underscores the importance of curriculum integration, teacher competence, and child-centered methods for the success of bilingual programs. Policy recommendations include strengthening regulations, providing continuous teacher training, and enhancing support for bilingual resources and media. For practitioners, adaptive strategies and innovative learning media are suggested to improve the effectiveness of bilingual education, positioning Malaysia’s experience as a valuable reference for other countries.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the dynamics of changes in children’s social–emotional functioning before and after napping in early childhood education institutions that provide childcare services. Employing a qualitative approach with a descriptive case study design, the study investigates children’s behavioral patterns in a naturalistic setting through observations and semi-structured interviews. The participants comprised three children (two typically developing and one with special needs) along with three accompanying teachers, selected using convenience total sampling technique due to their availability at the research site. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis encompassing open coding, axial coding, and selective coding procedures. The findings identified three major themes: first, a significant improvement was observed in emotional regulation, autonomy, and social interaction following nap time. Second, substantial individual variations emerged, particularly in the child with special needs, who required more intensive co-regulation support. Third, the nap time experience was influenced by multifactorial interactions, including daily routines, physical environment, caregiver support, and parent, educator communication. These findings reinforce our understanding of emotional regulation, socio-emotional competence, and executive functioning in child development. The present study offers practical implications for policies regarding flexible nap time arrangements in full-day or daycare early childhood education settings and is aligned with SDG 3 (mental health and well-being) and SDG 4.2 (access to quality early childhood education).
