Abstract

The implementation of early childhood education must be oriented according to the needs of children, namely education based on the interests, needs, and abilities of the child. This paper shows that the role of educators is very important in providing facilities for children's activities with the right learning environment so that children can develop according to their abilities. Educators should improve their ability in using media since the learning in early childhood is a vehicle for developing optimal potential according to the abilities, talents and interests of each child. Using classroom action research, it has been proved that the use of appropriate media can improve early childhood learning ability.
