PENANAMAN NILAI-NILAI TAUHID PADA ANAK USIA DINI MELALUI PENDEKATAN BERMAIN YANG EDUKATIF DAN ISLAMI

Abstract

The implementation of tawhid education in early childhood is an important effort in instilling faith values from the early stages of child development. Tawhid education needs to be introduced from an early age because it serves as the main foundation in shaping children's beliefs, character, and behavior in daily life. The learning process in early childhood requires approaches that are suitable for children's developmental characteristics, one of which is through play activities. This study employed a qualitative approach using descriptive qualitative research. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model consisting of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the implementation of tawhid education through play activities was carried out through storytelling, singing, role-playing, drawing, and other educational games. These activities positively contributed to children’s spiritual development, increased learning interest, and helped children recognize Allah and religious values more easily. However, the implementation still faced several obstacles, such as limited learning media and differences in children's characteristics..
