<![CDATA[The digital literacy of parents will serve as the primary example for preschool children in utilizing digital technology. The comprehension and selected mediation model chosen by parents will determine a child's development in using digital devices and media. This qualitative descriptive study aims to identify the role of parents in responding to the various productivity and phenomena that occur in their children during interactions with digital technology in their developmental stages. The study involves 29 parents of preschool children, 1 school principal, and 2 teachers at TK Plus Al Adalah. Data is collected through literature exploration, interviews, observations, and documentary studies. The collected data is analyzed through data reduction, presentation, and conclusion.
