We mainly associate early childhood education with school. In the government's understanding, this education is called preschool and consists of educating children up to 6 years old. Through play and educational activities, cognitive, motor, and physical abilities are exercised and assessed in daycares and preschools, encouraging the knowledge and development of each child.

Early childhood education is the first stage of schooling and prepares and develops children physically, psychologically, and socially for elementary school. Through drawings, paintings, and various activities, letters, numbers, and geometric shapes are introduced, which will be further perfected when literacy begins. The goal has become the semi-literacy of children at this stage, but not all schools support this. In elementary school, the child should develop reading and writing skills and learn calculation methods, alongside computer and arts classes.

The participation of parents, grandparents, and the rest of the family in general is extremely important in children's lives. In addition to family ties having an important social function in children's education, it is at home that they receive the foundation of education, learn what is right and wrong, acquire good manners, and have their interests and talents encouraged. Before in any other environment, early childhood education happens in the family. At home, it is possible to carry out educational activities with children, whether by reading a children's book or having a cooking day.
