The family plays a central role as the primary environment influencing children’s growth and overall welfare. However, modern challenges such as limited parenting knowledge, economic pressures, and digital distractions often reduce the quality of family interaction and parenting practices. This study aims to examine the concept of children’s wellbeing, analyze the role of family in supporting it, identify effective family programs and policies, and provide recommendations for optimizing family involvement. This research uses a literature review approach by analyzing various scientific sources related to family roles, parenting practices, and child wellbeing. The findings indicate that positive parenting, emotional support, parental involvement, and structured family programs such as parenting education, health programs, early stimulation, and social protection policies significantly contribute to children’s wellbeing. Collaboration between families, communities, educational institutions, and government policies is essential to create a supportive environment for children. Strengthening family-based programs and improving parenting literacy are key strategies to ensure children grow in a safe, supportive, and developmentally appropriate environment</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1074 Eksplorasi Kesejahteraan Anak melalui Interaksi Digital dan Dukungan Keluarga pada Masa Transisi Sosial Kontemporer 2026-06-13T16:16:52+00:00 Maesaroh Maesaroh maesaaa577@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu <p>In the context of digital interactions and family support during the current social transition, child well-being is the subject of this study. Children's psychological, social, and emotional health can be affected by the development of digital technology, which has changed the way children interact within their families and social environments. A case study method was used in this study to understand children's experiences in using digital technology and the role of families in providing adequate support. Primary data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of children and parents. The results show that digital interactions have two effects: they can help children's social and cognitive development, but they can also harm psychological well-being if not used appropriately. It is evident that active parental involvement, appropriate supervision, open communication, and strong family support are crucial for children's health. Therefore, this study suggests that the role of families in accompanying children and the use of digital technology must be balanced to create an environment that supports optimal child development</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1078 Keterkaitan Pola Asuh Otoriter dengan Children Well-Being Anak di Kampung Pedesaan 2026-06-13T14:42:04+00:00 Ai Asti Ramjani aiastii1808@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu <p>This study seeks to explore the relationship between authoritarian parenting and children’s well-being in rural village contexts. Authoritarian parenting refers to a parenting style marked by strict regulations, high levels of control, and minimal reciprocal communication between parents and children. Within rural communities, this approach is still frequently applied, influenced by cultural norms, inherited traditions, and socio-economic factors. The study adopts a qualitative design with a case study approach. Data were gathered through observations, interviews, and documentation involving several families residing in rural areas. The results show that authoritarian parenting is linked to various aspects of children’s well-being, particularly in emotional and social domains. Children raised in such environments are generally obedient and show a high level of discipline. However, they also tend to have lower self-confidence, face challenges in expressing their thoughts, and possess limited social interaction abilities. At the same time, some positive outcomes, such as strong discipline, are evident due to the strict parenting practices. Overall, the findings highlight that authoritarian parenting brings both positive and negative consequences for child development. It can be concluded that there is a meaningful relationship between authoritarian parenting and children’s well-being in rural settings. Children’s well-being is influenced not only by discipline but also by the strength of emotional connections between parents and children. Therefore, it is important to adopt a more balanced parenting style that combines discipline with emotional support to promote optimal child development and well-being</p> 2026-06-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1080 Sintesis Literatur: Efektivitas Sistem Dukungan Berjenjang (Three-Tier Support) dalam Menjamin Kesejahteraan Emosional di Sekolah Inklusif 2026-06-13T14:56:44+00:00 Rida Hermawati ridahermawati11@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu <p>Your Emotional well-being <em>(child well-being)</em> is a crucial foundation for children's learning success in inclusive schools, yet its implementation is often not systematically structured. This research aims to synthesize literature regarding the effectiveness of implementing a <em>MultiTiered System of Supports (MTSS)</em> or <em>Three-Tier Support</em> in ensuring children's emotional well-being in inclusive environments. The research method used is a literature review, analyzing 20 reputable scientific articles from Google Scholar, ERIC, and Science Direct databases within the 2021 to 2026 period. The results of the literature synthesis indicate that the tiered support model provides an effective framework through three levels of intervention: Tier 1 as universal support for all students, Tier 2 as targeted group interventions for at-risk children, and Tier 3 as intensive individual support. These findings confirm that tiered systems are capable of creating an emotional safety net responsive to diverse child needs, reducing anxiety levels, and increasing resilience in inclusive schools. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of standardizing emotional support protocols so that teachers can provide targeted interventions without compromising classroom inclusivity</p> 2026-06-29T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1083 Kecerdasan Emosional Pendidik PAUD dalam Membangun Lingkungan Belajar yang Positif 2026-06-14T01:44:57+00:00 Fauziyah Rizkika fauziyahrizkika20@upi.edu Aini Loita ainiloita@upi.edu Nazwa Nabila nananazwanabila@upi.edu Shifa Nur Rohmah shifanurrohmah@upi.edu Zahra Aulia Hidayati zahraauliahidayati@upi.edu <p>The emotional intelligence of early childhood educators is a key factor in creating a positive learning environment that supports early childhood development. This study aims to analyze the role of teachers’ emotional intelligence in fostering a safe, comfortable, and conducive learning atmosphere. The method used was a literature review examining various research findings related to the emotional intelligence of early childhood educators. The results of the review indicate that teachers’ emotional intelligence which encompasses self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills plays a significant role in enhancing the quality of teacher-child interactions, classroom management, and children’s social-emotional development. Furthermore, teachers’ emotional intelligence is also linked to their psychological well-being and children’s learning motivation. The implementation of emotional intelligence in learning can be achieved through empathetic communication, the use of affective language, positive reinforcement, and collaborative play activities. However, there are several challenges, such as high emotional workload and limited teacher-to-student ratios. Therefore, support in the form of training, institutional policies, and the integration of social-emotional learning into the curriculum is needed. Thus, strengthening the emotional intelligence of early childhood educators is a strategic step in creating a learning environment that is not only academically effective but also supports children’s emotional and social development</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1089 Peran Lingkungan Keluarga Terhadap Kesejahteraan Emosional Anak Usia Dini: Studi Literatur 2026-06-14T01:41:35+00:00 Filla Septi Wulandari fillasepti@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu <p>Emotional well-being in early childhood is a fundamental aspect of child development that influences various areas of life, both in the short and long term. During early childhood, children experience rapid development, making their experiences especially within the family environment crucial in shaping their emotional condition. In recent years, issues related to children’s emotional well-being have increased, including aggressive behavior, difficulties in emotional regulation, and limited social interaction skills. These problems are closely related to the role of the family as the child’s first and primary environment. The quality of parent–child interaction, parenting styles, family communication, and family stability are key factors influencing children’s emotional development. Several studies indicate that lack of parental involvement, excessive use of digital devices, and family conflict can negatively affect children’s emotional well-being (Nurmalitasari, 2015; Wahyuni &amp; Azizah, 2020; Rahman, 2021). This study aims to examine the role of the family environment in shaping early childhood emotional well-being through a literature review using 15 relevant sources. The findings show that attachment between children and parents, parenting styles, family communication, and family stability are the main factors influencing emotional well-being; therefore, active parental involvement in creating a warm, responsive, and stable family environment is essential to support optimal emotional development in early childhood</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1091 Peran Interaksi Sosial Dalam Meningkatkan Kesejahteraan Anak Usia Dini 2026-06-13T14:58:55+00:00 Alya Tulhasanah alyatulhasanah@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Siantur risbonsianturi@upi.edu <p>This study aims to examine the role of social interaction in enhancing the well-being of early childhood.

This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review method by analyzing relevant sources. The results indicate that positive social interaction with peers, parents, and teachers can improve children's social skills and overall well-being. Supportive environments also help children develop self-confidence and adapt effectively to their surroundings.

The global shift in educational paradigms emphasizes children’s well-being as a central indicator of educational quality; however, studies integrating children’s well-being explicitly into learning strategies remain limited. This study aims to analyze learning strategies that support children’s well-being through child-centered learning approaches, safe and inclusive learning environments, and positive social interactions. The research employed a qualitative approach using a literature review with descriptive analysis of scholarly publications related to early childhood education. Data were analyzed through selection, categorization, conceptual synthesis, and thematic interpretation to identify patterns of effective learning strategies. The findings indicate that learning strategies emphasizing active child participation, emotional support, play-based learning, and warm teacher– child relationships significantly enhance children’s emotional, social, and cognitive well-being. This study contributes conceptually by positioning children’s well-being as a pedagogical foundation for designing learning strategies in early childhood education.

According to John W. Santrock, early childhood development will be optimal if basic needs are met in a balanced manner. One way to achieve this is through a balance between play and learning. Play contributes to happiness, creativity, and social skills, while learning supports cognitive and language development. Lev Vygotsky emphasized that play plays a crucial role in child development. An imbalance between these two activities can lead to stress or suboptimal child development. This research uses literature studies and shows that the balance between play and learning can improve children's well-being and support children's overall development</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1099 Strategi Pendidik dalam Mengoptimalkan Well-Being Anak Usia Dini di Lingkungan Sekolah 2026-06-13T15:49:40+00:00 Dea Ayulia deaayulia27@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu <p>This study aims to explore teachers' strategies for improving children's psychological well-being in the school environment. The method used in this study is a literature review analyzing various child development concepts and relevant pedagogical strategies. The research findings indicate that children's well-being can be improved through four main strategies: strengthening emotional regulation, building secure attachment relationships between teachers and children, providing autonomy in learning activities, and creating an inclusive culture that fosters a sense of belonging in the classroom. Through these strategies, children feel more valued, secure, and have a higher motivation to learn. As a recommendation, teachers are expected to not only focus on academic achievement but also consistently build warm emotional interactions and create an inclusive physical and social environment. Furthermore, schools need to provide space for children's autonomy to develop independence and optimal mental health from an early age</p> 2026-07-03T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1101 Analisis Literatur: Dinamika Komunikasi Keluarga Sebagai Fondasi Kesejahteraan Emosional Anak Usia Dini 2026-06-13T15:14:13+00:00 Virgina Cahya Hardianto virginach07@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsinturi@upi.edu <p>Early childhood represents a critical period for the development of long-term psychological well-being. This study aims to analyze how family communication dynamics serve as the primary foundation for a child's emotional welfare. Through a literature analysis of 19 relevant journal articles, it was found that open interpersonal communication, emotional validation, and the active involvement of both parents are key determinants of a child's resilience. Conversely, communication failures such as abusive parenting styles, the absence of a father figure (fatherlessness), and post-divorce conflict act as significant risk factors for mental health disorders. The synthesis results demonstrate that family communication is not merely an exchange of information, but an emotional support system that shapes a child's emotional intelligence and stress-coping abilities</p> 2026-07-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1104 Makna Kesejahteraan Anak dalam Perspektif Pengalaman Subjektif : Studi Kualitatif pada Konteks Keluarga Modern 2026-06-13T15:33:24+00:00 Sindi Agustin sindiagustin@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu <p>Early childhood well-being is becoming increasingly relevant amidst changing dynamics of modern families. Although objective indicators such as education and health show improvement, these do not fully reflect children's subjective experiences in everyday life. This study aims to examine the meaning of child well-being from the perspective of subjective experiences in the context of modern families. The method used was a qualitative literature review of articles, books, and research reports from 2020–2025, analyzed using thematic analysis. The results indicate that child well-being is primarily defined through emotional experiences, such as feeling loved, cared for, and closeness to parents. Meanwhile, technology plays a dual role, either supporting or diminishing the quality of interactions, depending on parental support.

The method used is a quantitative approach with a survey design, involving a number of children as research subjects selected purposively. Data collection was carried out through observations and questionnaires tailored to the characteristics of early childhood, then analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The results of the study indicate that a conducive, safe, and enjoyable learning environment has a positive and significant influence on children's well-being, which is characterized by increased feelings of comfort, happiness, involvement, and social interaction skills. In addition, responsive teacher support and harmonious social relationships also strengthen these positive impacts.

This study used a qualitative approach with a case study design in Islamic-based early childhood education institutions. Data were collected through participatory observation. The findings show that the internalization of Islamic values, including monotheism, morals, discipline, responsibility, and manners, is more effective through habituation, exemplary behavior, positive reinforcement, and the integration of values into directed and controlled digital play and learning activities. Parents serve as the primary companions in building children’s digital literacy in the family environment, while teachers act as learning facilitators and role models in strengthening character at school. Continuous synergy between families and educational institutions strengthens the formation of children’s religious character from an early age.

Children’s well-being refers to a state of well-being that encompasses physical, psychological, and social aspects, which is significantly influenced by the child’s immediate environment, particularly the family. This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method, drawing from various scientific journals, books, and previous research findings. The findings indicate that the family, as the first and primary environment, plays a dominant role in shaping children’s well-being. Parental parenting styles are a key factor, with the authoritative (democratic) style proven to be the most effective in supporting children’s emotional, social, and psychological development. Conversely, authoritarian and permissive parenting styles tend to have negative impacts on children’s development.

During early childhood, the quality of family interactions serves as a foundation for socio-emotional development, a sense of security, happiness, and school readiness. One important form of interaction that contributes to children's well-being is <em>family bonding time</em>, defined as quality time spent through meaningful shared activities between parents and children. This study aims to analyze the role of <em>family bonding time</em> in enhancing children’s well-being in early childhood through a literature review approach. Data were collected from reputable national journal articles, developmental theory books, and academic references related to secure attachment, parental involvement, and child well-being. The analysis employed a qualitative descriptive approach through literature identification, thematic categorization, synthesis of previous studies, and conceptual interpretation. The findings indicate that <em>family bonding time</em> contributes significantly to strengthening secure attachment, emotional regulation, social skills, language and cognitive development, as well as children’s sense of security and happiness. Furthermore, family togetherness functions as a protective factor against excessive gadget use and individualistic tendencies. The review also reveals that the quality of interaction has a greater impact on children’s well-being than the amount of time spent together.

This overstimulasi phenomenon is suspected as the primary etiological factor in the deficiency of emotional response regulation in children. This study aims to analyze the implications of digital content overstimulasi on the emotional regulation capabilities of early childhood through a comprehensive literature review. The applied methodology is a library study, involving the analysis of 20 reputable national journal articles published within the 2021–2025 period, accessed from the Google Scholar, Sinta, and Garuda databases. Substantial findings indicate that excessive exposure to high-speed content (high screen time) induces non-physiological dopamine release, resulting in a decreased frustration tolerance threshold, increased tantrum incidence, and degradation of attention span. Digital content overstimulasi inhibits the maturation of the prefrontal cortex as the center of emotional regulation. Children's psychological well-being in the digital era is highly conditional on the moderation of digital device usage.

The background of the research highlights the importance of early childhood education as the foundation for cognitive and psychological development, as well as the strategic role of teachers in fostering children's creativity through innovative learning models. A quantitative descriptive method was used, with data collected through questionnaires distributed to kindergarten teachers in several districts of Tasikmalaya City. The research was conducted from June 24 to June 30, 2025. The findings reveal that the majority of teachers have an excellent understanding of PjBL, as indicated by the high percentage of respondents in the "Very Understanding" category across the four main indicators: planning, designing, implementation, and reporting. The highest percentages were recorded in the design and reporting indicators, both at 97.10%. These results indicate that teachers are capable of applying the PjBL approach in their teaching practices as part of the Merdeka Curriculum implementation. However, a small number of teachers still show limited understanding. Therefore, it is recommended that continuous training and professional development programs be provided to ensure equal levels of teacher competence in implementing PjBL, thereby optimizing its application and supporting the achievement of holistic and innovative early childhood education goals</p> 2026-07-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/765 Pengaruh Media Film Animasi Terhadap Kemampuan Menyimak Pada Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun 2025-08-14T09:42:07+00:00 Karina Salsabila Surya karinasalsabilasurya@upi.edu Aini Loita ainiloita@upi.edu Gilar Gandana gilar@upi.edu <p>This study aims to determine the effect of animated film media on the listening skills of children aged 5-6 years. The study used an experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design involving 20 children from Pembina Kindergarten in Tasikmalaya City, divided into 10 children in the experimental group and 10 children in the control group. The experimental group was given treatment in the form of animated film presentations, while the control group used conventional learning media. Data were collected through observation sheets. The results showed a significant increase in the average score of the experimental group from 22.00 to 31.90. These findings indicate that animated film media can improve children's listening skills, because it combines visual and auditory stimuli that can facilitate understanding of information more effectively.

Excessive screen exposure raises concerns regarding its potential impact on children’s social development, as many children spend more time watching entertainment videos and playing games rather than engaging in direct social interaction. This study aims to describe gadget-use patterns, types of accessed content, and parental strategies to manage gadget dependence among young children. A descriptive qualitative design with a naturalistic approach was employed. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with five parents and observations of five children aged 1–6 years. The findings show that children use gadgets for 1–3 hours daily, exceeding the duration recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. The majority of content accessed includes entertainment such as animated videos, children’s songs, and digital games, while educational content is accessed only minimally. Parental strategies identified in this study include limiting screen duration, redirecting children to alternative activities, and providing close supervision during gadget use. However, time-limits alone are often ineffective without consistent rules and engaging alternative activities. Parental mediation plays a crucial role in reducing excessive gadget use and preventing negative impacts on children’s social development</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/889 Implementasi ModelImplementasi Modeling Guru dalam Mengembangkan Karakter Tanggung Jawab Anak Usia 5–6 Tahuning Guru dalam Mengembangkan Karakter Tanggung Jawab Anak Usia 5–6 Tahun 2026-01-13T08:25:13+00:00 Mita Mita galuh.muliawan@gmail.com Inten Risna intanrisna@gmail.com Yoga Mahendra yogamahendra@gmail.com <p>This study aims to examine the implementation of teacher modeling in developing the character of responsibility among 5–6-year-old children at RA Khairatul Jannah, Cilegon City. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show that teachers consistently serve as role models through behavioral modeling, value habituation, consistent attitudes, and affirmative communication. Children imitate responsible behaviors demonstrated by teachers, such as completing tasks, maintaining cleanliness, and following classroom rules. The study also found that teacher consistency and emotional closeness significantly contribute to children’s internalization of responsible behavior. However, challenges remain, such as inconsistent home environments and teacher workload that sometimes affects modeling quality. This study concludes that teacher modeling is an effective strategy for strengthening children’s responsibility and should be supported by school programs and collaboration with parents.

This study aims to describe the attachment patterns of young children in divorced families, their levels of psychological resilience, and the relationship between the two within the context of Islamic education. Using a descriptive quantitative approach, 30 divorced parents were selected through purposive sampling and completed an online questionnaire consisting of 24 items measuring attachment and 15 items measuring psychological resilience. The results indicate that 60% of children exhibit high attachment, 33.3% moderate attachment, and 6.7% low attachment; meanwhile, psychological resilience is categorized as high in 46.7% of children, moderate in 43.3%, and low in 10%. These findings suggest that the majority of children are still able to develop secure attachment and positive resilience when they receive consistent emotional support from caregivers and their social environment. This study highlights the importance of responsive parenting grounded in Islamic values, including compassion (rahmah) and Islamic caregiving principles, in supporting children’s social-emotional development. The findings contribute to Islamic early childhood education (Islamic ECE) by emphasizing the need for approaches that are sensitive to both emotional and spiritual aspects of early childhood caregiving</p> 2026-01-31T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/905 Membangun Generasi Qur’ani melalui Pendidik yang Berintegrasi: Strategi Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini Berbasis Al Quran dan Hadits 2026-01-28T07:20:06+00:00 Izzatul Iffah izzatuliffah149@gmail.com Evi Rahayu evirahayu4499@gmail.com Syafruddin Syafruddin syafruddin@uinib.ac.id Zulheldi Zulheldi zulheldi@uinib.ac.id Rehani Rehani rehani@uinib.ac.id <p>Early childhood education is a critical phase in shaping the spiritual and moral foundations that will determine the quality of future generations. In the context of Islamic early childhood education institutions, the integration of Qur’anic and Prophetic values in learning activities is still insufficient, and the role of educators as primary models in forming Qur’anic character has not been fully optimized. This study aims to formulate Qur’an- and Hadith-based early childhood learning strategies through the concept of the “integrated educator,” namely an educator who is able to unify knowledge, exemplary character, and spiritual practice within the educational process. This research employed the library research method through an in-depth review of tafsir works, Islamic education literature, recent scientific articles, and early childhood education regulations. The findings reveal that the formation of a Qur’anic generation can be achieved through five core strategies: prophetic role modeling, integrating Qur’anic values into daily routines, contextual habituation of worship, the use of storytelling methods (Qur’anic and prophetic narratives), and strengthening emotional–spiritual intelligence based on hadith. The novelty of this study lies in the formulation of the conceptual model of the “Qur’anic integrated educator,” which combines pedagogical, spiritual, and prophetic approaches simultaneously as a strategic framework to enhance the quality of Qur’an- and Hadith-based early childhood education</p> 2026-07-06T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/910 Analisis Permainan Tradisional Engklek Dalam Meningkatkan Kemampuan Motorik Kasar Di PAUD Ar-Rafizqi 2026-01-13T08:43:53+00:00 Desi Kusuma Wati dessy.kusumawati31@gmail.com Amat Hidayat amathidayat@gmail.com Ibnu Sina ibnusina@gmail.com Inten Risna intenrisna@gmail.com Ratu Yustika Rini ratuyustikarini@gmail.com <p>This study aims to analyze the influence of the traditional game engklek in improving gross motor skills of early childhood learners in Group B at PAUD Ar-Rafizqi.

A descriptive qualitative method was employed with three participants aged 5–6 years. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation conducted over five days of engklek implementation. The results show that consistent engagement in engklek activities significantly improved various aspects of gross motor skills, including strength, balance, agility, coordination, speed, flexibility, and endurance. Two children (MRD and KA) achieved the “Developing as Expected” category, while one child (AAI) reached the “Beginning to Develop” level. These improvements were evident in their ability to hop, throw the gacuk, and maintain balance independently. The findings support previous studies indicating that engklek is an effective and enjoyable learning medium to enhance gross motor development in early childhood.

This article aims to analyze the concept of religious moderation, identify challenges in its implementation, and formulate strategies for strengthening religious moderation in early childhood education. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method using a literature-based <em>integrative review</em> approach, analyzing 15 sources consisting of national and international journal articles, academic books, and official government policy documents. The findings indicate that religious moderation in early childhood education can be effectively implemented through thematic learning integration, teacher role modeling, inclusive school culture, and collaboration among schools, parents, and the wider community. However, several challenges persist, including limited teacher understanding, insufficient continuous training, the influence of social media, and resistance from local cultural norms. The originality of this article lies in its comprehensive synthesis of conceptual and practical perspectives on religious moderation that specifically focuses on early childhood education by linking Indonesia’s national policy framework with global multicultural and citizenship education discourse. The study concludes that strengthening religious moderation from an early age requires collaborative strategies, curriculum reinforcement, and sustained capacity building for educators to foster tolerant character development and prepare children to engage constructively with global diversity</p> 2026-01-02T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/938 Evaluasi Program PAUD Holistik Integratif Dengan Model CIPP DI TK Satu Atap Sejiram Sambas 2026-01-28T09:40:48+00:00 Saripah Saripah saripahiphe1616@gmail.com Siti Mania sitti.mania@uin-alauddin.ac.id Muhammad Nur Akbar Rasyid akbar.rasyid@uin-alauddin.ac.id <p>This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Holistic Integrative Early Childhood Education (PAUD HI) Program at TK Satu Atap Sejiram, Sambas Regency.

Discipline is a crucial component of character development in early childhood, and habituation serves as an effective method to instill consistent behavioral patterns. However, variations in children’s developmental conditions, parental involvement, and teacher consistency contribute to different outcomes in the development of discipline. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method using interviews, observations, and documentation. The participants included three children from group B, two teachers, and three parents. Data were analyzed to describe the habituation processes and the development of children’s discipline across three indicators: time discipline, rule discipline, and attitude discipline. The findings indicate that children’s levels of discipline vary and are influenced by parental involvement, individual developmental conditions, and teacher modeling. SM demonstrated strong and stable discipline, while AG and AH required additional guidance, particularly AH, who experiences speech delay that affects his ability to follow rules and instructions. A structured school environment and consistent routines, such as lining up, greeting, and cleaning up, significantly support the formation of disciplined behavior.

The novelty of the study lies in its specific focus on the Ase game as a medium for instilling diversity values, differing from previous research that has generally explored traditional games within the broader context of character development. The study identifies key diversity values that emerge, including cooperation, tolerance, harmonious living, mutual assistance, solidarity, and empathy, while positioning the local wisdom of the Buton community as an empirical context that remains underexplored in early childhood education research. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed with ten children as research participants. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed using data reduction, data display, and verification procedures. The findings indicate that the traditional Ase game effectively internalizes diversity values through peer interactions, role distribution within teams, effective communication, and sportsmanship in accepting both victory and defeat. Therefore, the traditional Ase game has strong potential as a culturally based learning medium for instilling diversity values from an early age while simultaneously preserving local cultural heritage</p> 2026-01-31T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/977 Pengaruh Permainan Dende Bulang Terhadap Perkembangan Motorik Kasar Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun di TK Negeri Songing 2026-01-28T09:42:47+00:00 Andi Sri Putri Dewi andisriputridewi@gmail.com Muhammad Yusri Bachtiar m.yusri@unm.ac.id Sri Rika Amriani rikamusyawir@gmail.com <p>This study aims to determine the effect of the Dende Bulang game on the gross motor development of children aged 5-6 years at TK Negeri Songing.

The purpose of this study was to improve children's language skills through the application of storytelling methods using serial images. The language skills referred to in this study are expressive language skills, namely the ability of children to retell stories they have heard. The method used in this study was the Kurt Lewin model of Classroom Action Research (CAR) with 7 children aged 4–5 years in group A at Aprillya Aceh Besar Kindergarten as the research subjects. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation of teacher activities and children's language skills, using observation sheets as instruments. The results of the study can be concluded that improving children's language skills can be done through the following steps: teachers prepare a series of pictures, teachers create an orderly, calm, and conducive learning atmosphere, teachers introducing children to a series of pictures about landslides, teachers asking children to pay attention to the pictures while teachers narrate the pictures, teachers pausing the story for a moment and asking questions to children, teachers asking children to retell the story from the series of pictures that have been read by teachers.

However, research findings at Pertiwi Parakan Kindergarten indicate that most children aged five to six years are not yet able to use krama inggil appropriately in daily communication. This study aims to improve children's ability to use Javanese krama through the role-playing method. The research employed a Classroom Action Research approach conducted in three cycles. Data were collected through observation and analyzed using descriptive quantitative methods based on the percentage of learning mastery. The results show a gradual improvement in language ability, with learning mastery reaching 85 percent in the third cycle. These findings indicate that the role-playing method is effective in improving children's ability to use Javanese krama and supports the development of polite character in early childhood. The implication of this study suggests that role-playing is a vital pedagogical tool for internalizing cultural values and polite character in early childhood. It is recommended that teachers integrate traditional language learning through interactive play-based methods and that further research explore its long-term impact on children's social interaction</p> 2026-04-15T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1068 Peran Program Pemerintah dan Masyarakat dalam Pendidikan untuk Mewujudkan Kesejahteraan Anak 2026-06-14T01:04:45+00:00 Septiani Nabila Putri nengtyanabila23@upi.edu Risbon Sianturi risbonsianturi@upi.edu Sinta Indah Pratiwi sintaindah@upi.edu Tasya Nazwa Nafisa tasyanazwa15@upi.edu Widia Andini widiaandini@upi.edu <p>This study aims to analyze the role of government programs and community participation in education as an effort to promote children's well-being.

Positive communication refers to interactions that emphasize empathy, supportive language, and respectful responses to children’s feelings. Children’s well-being encompasses a holistic condition that includes emotional, social, and psychological aspects of child development. This research employed a qualitative approach using a literature review method. Data were obtained from various scientific sources, including national and international journals relevant to the research topic. The findings indicate that consistently applied positive communication can enhance children’s sense of security, self-confidence, and ability to regulate emotions. Furthermore, supportive communication strengthens the emotional bond between parents and children, which positively influences children’s psychological well-being. According to Harter (2012), emotional support from close environments plays an essential role in shaping children’s positive self-perception (p. 87).

This study aims to describe the role of the family in role-playing activities as a stimulation of verbal abilities in children aged 5–6 years, and to identify its impact on children's cognitive development based on differences in the intensity of parental involvement. The method used was a qualitative case study design. The research subjects consisted of two children aged 5–6 years who were selected purposively with a maximum variation strategy: one child with active family involvement in role-playing (FZ) and one child with less active family involvement (FT). Data collection was carried out through direct observation, in-depth semi-structured interviews with parents and teachers, and documentation. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model with source triangulation techniques. The results showed that children with active family involvement in role- playing showed more developed verbal abilities, high learning initiative, and more optimal cognitive development. Conversely, children with less active family involvement tended to be verbally passive, less independent, and showed more limited cognitive development due to the dominance of unsupervised gadget use. This study confirms that active family involvement in role-playing activities plays an important role in stimulating children's verbal and cognitive growth and development</p> 2026-07-03T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/1170 Pengaruh Permainan Happy Jump Challenge Terhadap Kemampuan Membedakan Perilaku Baik dan Buruk Anak Usia Dini 2026-06-13T15:44:11+00:00 Heri Hidayat herihidayat@uinsgd.ac.id Fadilah Ersa Rania raniajasni12@gmail.com Soniah Natalia soniahnatalia4@gmail.com Sofie Qanita Rahma sofieqanita13@gmail.com Jordan Moharnika jordanpaliyang@gmail.com Fadilla Ayuningtyas fadillaayuningtyas@uinsgd.ac.id <p>Many children aged 5–6 struggle to distinguish between good and bad behavior due to unappealing conventional learning methods. This study aims to determine the effect of the <em>Happy Jump Challenge</em> game on the ability to differentiate these behaviors among early childhood students at PAUD Nurul Ikhlas, Bandung. The <em>Happy Jump Challenge</em> is an educational, physical-manipulative game using picture cards and a response board to help children categorize moral behaviors enjoyably. This quantitative study employed a one-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design with 16 children aged 5–6 years selected through total sampling. Data were collected via structured observations using an 8-item instrument on a 1–4 developmental scale (BB, MB, BSH, BSB). The tool was validated using Pearson Product Moment (r = 0,755-0,894) and Cronbach’s Alpha 0,89. Data analysis involved Chi-Square (normality), F-test (homogeneity), and a Paired Sample t-test. The results showed that both datasets were normally distributed and homogeneous. The mean score increased significantly by 10.31 points, from the pre-test (x̄ = 20,19) to the post-test (x̄ = 30,50). The Paired Sample t-test yielded a calculated t-value (20,122) &gt; t-tabel (2,947) at α = 0,01, rejecting H0. Ultimately, all 16 children achieved the highest developmental category on the post-test. These findings demonstrate that the <em>Happy Jump Challenge</em> significantly improves children's ability to distinguish between good and bad behavior, making it a highly recommended innovative tool for early childhood moral education</p> 2026-07-02T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2026 Ar-Raihanah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam Anak Usia Dini https://ejournal.stit-alkifayahriau.ac.id/index.php/arraihanah/article/view/732 Pengaruh Media Digital Interaktif Eduma terhadap Pemahaman Konsep Alam Semesta Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun 2025-07-27T07:50:06+00:00 Rahma Sukmara Putri rahmaputri2109@gmail.com Qonita Qonita qonita@upi.edu Taopik Rahman opik@upi.edu <p>This study examines the effect of the interactive digital media Eduma on children’s understanding of universe concepts aged 5–6 years at TK Nurul Hikmah Sejahtera.

The research employed a qualitative phenomenological approach, collecting data through semi-structured interviews with ten participants, including early childhood educators and parents of children aged 3–6. The findings reveal several factors contributing to the reduced use of Sundanese, such as the dominance of Indonesian at home, the influence of socially diverse environments, and the intense exposure to digital media in Indonesian and foreign languages. Sundanese is perceived as a second or even foreign language by many children due to the lack of natural interaction in their daily lives. Efforts to preserve Sundanese remain limited to ceremonial programs such as "Kamis Nyunda" and have yet to achieve sustainability or integration into daily routines.

This study aims to analyze the relationship between the intensity of YouTube viewing and language politeness among children aged 4 to 6 years in Tawang District, Tasikmalaya City. A quantitative correlational approach was employed, involving 178 children selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire based on indicators of viewing intensity (frequency, duration, type of content) and principles of politeness in language. Instrument validity and reliability tests confirmed that the questionnaire was appropriate for data collection. Results showed that most children had moderate to high viewing intensity, predominantly watching entertainment content. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a positive and statistically significant relationship between YouTube viewing intensity and children's language politeness (r = 0.313; p = 0.000), although the strength of the relationship was categorized as low. These findings support cultivation theory, which posits that prolonged exposure to media can shape social behaviors, including the use of polite language. Therefore, YouTube can contribute to the development of polite language in children if accompanied by active parental guidance and exposure to age-appropriate content that carries positive values.

This research is motivated by the low independence of children in carrying out daily activities such as opening lunch boxes, putting on pants, and tidying up toys without teacher assistance. This low independence is caused by the habituation of Practical Life activities that have not been optimally implemented in schools. To increase children's independence, researchers implemented Practical Life activities as a form of learning that emphasizes the practice of daily living skills. The results of the study showed an increase in children's independence after being given treatment. The average pretest score showed that most children were not yet independent, whereas after being given Practical Life activities for three treatments, the posttest score increased significantly.

The research subjects consisted of teacher and 30 children in Group B, including 17 boys and 13 girls. The method used was Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, each comprising planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. Data were collected through observations on three main indicators: children’s attention, willingness to retell or repeat reading, and engagement. The results showed a significant increase in all three indicators. Children’s attention increased from 43% at the initial stage to 95% in the second reflection. The willingness to retell or repeat reading increased from 50% to 98%, while engagement rose from 40% to 95%. Read aloud activities, delivered with engaging intonation, expressive gestures, and warm interaction between teachers and children, created a joyful, interactive learning environment suitable for early childhood. Children became more focused, enthusiastic, and active, while simultaneously fostering curiosity, love for books, language skills, imagination, and self-confidence. This study confirms that reading aloud is an effective strategy for fostering reading interest and supporting early literacy development in young children.

The success of education at this stage is influenced not only by learning processes in school but also by the quality of interaction and partnership between teachers and parents. In practice, however, teacher–parent interaction is often limited and not yet sustainable. This study aims to explore in depth the forms, meanings, and roles of teacher–parent interaction in supporting early childhood education at PAUD Daru Tifli. This research employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with one teacher and several parents of early childhood learners, supported by direct observation. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis to identify key patterns related to teacher–parent interaction in supporting early childhood education. The findings revealed seven main themes: (1) the importance of teacher–parent interaction, (2) the role of interaction in children’s development, (3) forms of teacher and parent support, (4) communication media used, (5) communication as a means of monitoring child development, (6) responses to information about children’s development, and (7) routine discussions between teachers and parents. The results indicate that interaction is perceived as a continuous partnership that bridges the home and school environments. Emotional and communicative support was found to have a greater impact on children’s confidence and development than material support alone. The discussion highlights that consistent two-way communication, the use of digital media such as WhatsApp, and regular formal and informal discussions strengthen parental involvement and support children’s holistic development.

This condition raises serious issues for children, particularly in their social and emotional development. Children from divorced families often experience feelings of loss, emotional instability, and difficulties in forming social relationships. These problems are exacerbated by the limited role of parents in providing guidance and affection after the divorce. This study aims to examine the impact of divorce on children’s social and emotional development. The research employs a qualitative approach using a descriptive research method. The subjects of this study consist of four respondents representing two different cases concerning the impact of divorce on children. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Based on the resuts of research conducted in Lampaseh Aceh, Banda Aceh, the findings indicate that divorce has a significant impact on children’s social and emotional development from early childhood through adolescence. Early childhood children are more affected in emotional aspects, such as heightened sensitivity, feelings of guilt, and the loss of a father figure. Adolescents, on the other hand, experience impacts such as identity crises, low self-confidence, negative perceptions of marriage, and a greater tendency to seek support from peers.
