Summary

Introduction

Childhood Education (ECE) is a coaching effort aimed at children from birth to the age of six which is carried out through the provision of educational stimulation to help physical and spiritual growth and development so that children have the readiness to enter further education. The child's development achieved is an integration of understanding aspects, namely religious and moral values, physical motoric, cognitive, social-emotional, language, and art. This is important for children because developing these abilities will make it easier for children to continue to the stage of education (Depdiknas, 2009). Language is the main communication tool for a child to express his various desires and needs (Susanto, 2012)
