Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of Kaulinan Barudak in preserving the values of Catur Silih in Sundanese culture in the modern era. This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a library research approach. Data were collected from books, journal articles, previous studies, and online publications related to Sundanese culture, traditional games, and Catur Silih values. The results show that Kaulinan Barudak contains cultural values of silih asih, silih asah, silih asuh, and silih wawangi, which contribute to children’s social harmony, character development, and sense of responsibility. However, the preservation of Kaulinan Barudak faces challenges in the digital era due to the dominance of electronic games and limited play space. Integrating traditional games into early childhood education through a culture-based curriculum and technological adaptation can ensure their sustainability. The preservation effort requires collaboration among schools, parents, and the government so that traditional games can be reintroduced to the younger generation in a relevant and meaningful way.

Abstract

The principal is a teacher with the responsibility of leading and managing a school to improve the quality of education. In the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum, principals must possess professional competencies in leadership, as this will influence decision-making in school leadership, thereby facilitating a student-centered learning transformation.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the curriculum system in Japan by focusing on five main aspects: (1) the history of the curriculum; (2) curriculum policy; (3) curriculum principles; (4) early childhood education (ECE) curriculum; (5) types of early childhood education institutions in Japan; and (6) insights for Indonesian Early Childhood Education. This research employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method. The subjects of the study include relevant documents such as books, academic articles, and Japanese educational policy documents. Data were collected through literature analysis and analyzed using content analysis techniques, involving repeated reading and cross-referencing of sources to ensure data validity. The results indicate that Japan consistently updates its curriculum every ten years to align with changing times. The curriculum is dynamic, flexible, and modern. The historical development of Japan's curriculum is divided into two major eras: Tokugawa and Meiji. The principle of Chi-Toku-Tai, emphasized in the Japanese curriculum, aligns with Bloom’s taxonomy domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. At the early childhood level, the curriculum for children aged 0–3 focuses on intellectual, social-emotional, and physical development, while for those aged 4–6, it emphasizes structured play, language, arts, and social interaction. Thus, Japan’s early childhood education curriculum reflects a comprehensive and sustainable system, characterized by periodic curriculum revisions, the implementation of the Chi-Toku-Tai principle, and the integration of national policy with a holistic, child-centered educational approach.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the impact of healthy environment development activities at TK Pertiwi Panggung on the formation of children's naturalistic intelligence. Environmental education is crucial in early childhood as it plays a role in fostering ecological awareness and an attitude of caring for the environment. The activities implemented included gardening, waste sorting, and maintaining cleanliness, which directly provided nature-based learning experiences for the children. The research method used was descriptive qualitative, with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicated that the healthy environment development activities not only enhanced children's naturalistic intelligence but also instilled discipline, responsibility, and a love for nature. Some challenges faced included limited space and parental support. Additionally, the active involvement of teachers in facilitating these activities had a significant impact on the success of the program. In conclusion, the healthy environment development program at school plays a significant role in shaping children's naturalistic intelligence and fostering environmental care characteristics in early childhood. This highlights the importance of integrating environmental education into early childhood education curricula to support the holistic development of character and intelligence.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the planning, implementation, as well as the supporting and inhibiting factors of parental involvement in supporting quality early childhood education at TKIT Sholahuddin Al Ayyubi, Sumedang. This research adopts a descriptive qualitative approach, which seeks to describe, explain, and answer questions related to ongoing phenomena and events. Through this approach, the study provides an in-depth understanding of the observed situation. The results showed that parental involvement at TKIT Sholahuddin Al Ayyubi, Sumedang in supporting quality ECE is carried out through three stages: planning, implementation, and evaluation of supporting and inhibiting factors. At the planning stage, parental involvement is reflected in school committee meetings, school program development, and collaboration with external institutions such as health centers. However, some parents are still not actively involved in the planning process. At the implementation stage, parental involvement is reflected in activities such as parenting sessions, parent classes, supplementary feeding programs, early detection of growth and development, clean and healthy living behavior programs, and Collection of National Identification Numbers for the Basic Education Data System. The school also supports healthy habits by providing sanitation and clean water facilities. The supporting factors for parental involvement include effective communication, mutual commitment, and adequate facilities, which help strengthen cooperation between parents and the school. Inhibiting factors include limited time, parents' busy work schedules, and a lack of understanding about the importance of parental roles in early childhood education. Suggestions for institutions, teachers, and parents include enhancing collaboration through effective communication, training programs, and encouraging active participation in children's education. This also involves strengthening the role of parents both at home and at school in order to help achieve high-quality early childhood education. Keywords: parental involvement, quality of early childhood education, young children.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the Jarimatika method on the development of numeracy skills in children aged 4–5 years at TK Islam Al-Furqan Minasa Upa Makassar. Numeracy skills in early childhood are a fundamental aspect in building a comprehensive understanding of mathematics during later stages of development. The Jarimatika method is a finger-counting technique designed to help children understand number concepts and arithmetic operations in a concrete and enjoyable way. This research used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, consisting of two groups: the experimental and control groups. The study involved 20 children as subjects. The Wilcoxon 2-tailed test result was 0.005 < 0.05, which means that Ho is rejected and H1 is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that the Jarimatika method has a positive effect on the development of numeracy skills in children aged 4–5 years. This method can serve as an effective and enjoyable alternative for teaching basic mathematics in early childhood education institutions.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low speaking ability of children aged 4-5 years in Lubuk Saung Village, Banyuasin III District, which is thought to be influenced by the high use of gadgets and low parental involvement. This study aims to determine the effect of gadget use and parental involvement on children's speaking ability. The method used is quantitative with ex post facto type. The population is 40 children with saturated sampling technique. Data collection is done through observation, questionnaires, and documentation. Data analysis includes validity, reliability, normality, multiple linear regression, t-test, F-test, and coefficient of determination (R²). The results show that all instruments are valid (r count > 0.312) and reliable (α = 0.922–0.955), and the data are normally distributed (Sig. 0.116 > 0.05). The regression equation obtained is Y = -6.775 – 0.052X₁ + 0.407X₂ + e. The t-test shows that gadget use has a significant negative effect (Sig. 0.000 < 0.05; H₀ rejected) and parental involvement has a significant positive effect (Sig. 0.000 < 0.05; H₀ rejected). The F-test shows a significant simultaneous effect (Sig.0.000 < 0.05; H₀ rejected). The R² value of 0.374 indicates that the contribution of both variables is 37.4% to children's speaking ability. Thus, high gadget use tends to decrease children's speaking ability, while optimal parental involvement can improve children's speaking ability. Keywords: gadget use, parental involvement, speaking ability

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the color and smell sensory play approach in building emotional readiness of early childhood children aged 3–6 years in overcoming the rejection of new foods (food neophobia) within the family environment. The research employed a qualitative design with a multiple case study approach that is descriptive and exploratory. The subjects of the study were 10 families in Balikpapan, Kalimantan Island, who have children aged 3–6 years exhibiting picky eating behavior. Data were collected through participant observation during 4–6 sensory play sessions at home, semi-structured in-depth interviews with parents before and after the intervention, documentation, and respondents’ daily notes. Data analysis was conducted using Braun and Clarke’s (2006) thematic analysis technique with the assistance of NVivo software. The findings showed that the combination of bright color stimuli and natural aromas significantly increased children’s emotional readiness, reduced fear responses and rejection of new foods by up to 80%, and made mealtimes calmer and more enjoyable. This study concludes that the simple and family-centered color and smell sensory play approach is effective when implemented in the home environment and has strong potential to be integrated into Islamic early childhood education to cultivate gratitude and healthy eating habits in accordance with Islamic teachings. This approach offers a practical and holistic solution for stunting prevention in Indonesia. Keywords: Color Sensory Play, Emotional Readiness, Food Neophobia, Smell Sensory Play
