Abstract

Background: Religious behavior in early childhood is frequently observed within structured educational settings. However, children who appear religious at school do not always demonstrate the same level of awareness and practice outside the school environment. This phenomenon raises questions about whether such behaviors reflect genuine value internalization or are primarily the result of habituation. Objective: This study aims to examine whether early childhood religious behaviors represent the internalization of Islamic values or are predominantly shaped by repeated habituation practices in the school environment. Methods: A qualitative descriptive approach was employed involving five children aged 5–6 years and five parents at PAUD Pijar Beriman, Dasan Agung Baru. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the interactive model developed by Matthew B. Miles and A. Michael Huberman. Result: The findings indicate that children are able to perform various religious practices, including prayer, ablution, Qur’an recitation, and daily supplications within the school setting. Nevertheless, these behaviors are not consistently initiated independently at home and continue to depend on parental encouragement. Based on Muhaimin’s framework of value internalization, the children have reached the stages of value recognition and practice but have not yet attained the stage where religious values become an integral part of their inner awareness. Conclusion: The study concludes that religious behavior among the participating children is more strongly influenced by habituation than by deep value internalization. Although religious practices have become part of their daily routines at school, the process of transforming these practices into intrinsic personal values remains incomplete.

Abstract

Background: Children’s independence is an important aspect of early childhood development that is generally fostered through intensive parental involvement. However, children in farming families often experience limited interaction with their parents due to agricultural work activities. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the parenting strategies employed by farmer parents in fostering the independence of children aged 5–6 years in Pendem Village. Methods: This qualitative descriptive study involved four farmer parents and four children. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Result: The findings showed that children demonstrated physical independence through their ability to eat, bathe, dress, and manage personal needs independently, while emotional independence was reflected in their ability to regulate emotions and adapt to social environments when their parents were working. Independence was fostered through habituation, simple responsibilities, direct experiences, and support from the village community. The novelty of this study lies in the finding that limited parent–child interaction does not hinder children’s independence but instead fosters a contextual parenting pattern based on direct experience and community support. Conclusion: Limited parent–child interaction in farming families does not necessarily impede the development of children's independence. Instead, farmer parents foster independence through contextual parenting practices that emphasize habituation, responsibility, direct experiences, and community support, enabling children to develop both physical and emotional independence from an early age.
