A child is an individual figure who is undergoing a development process that occurs rapidly and is fundamental to the next life process of the child. Along with the goal of early childhood education to develop all the potential possessed by children, the home is expected to be a place for children to develop attitudes, knowledge, skills, and creativity that can be used as children’s capital in adjusting to their environment and for further child development.
