Abstract

Children in Indonesia are still not very interested in reading. Supporting variables that can affect reading interest are necessary for low reading interest. This research aimed to investigate the ways in which early childhood knowledge, interest, and practices in family literacy are influenced by the five pillars of family and community engagement (FACE). There is no research on how the five FACE pillars affect early childhood understanding of and practices in Klambir V Kebun village families, despite the fact that each of the five pillars is essential to the demands of family literacy development and is well-described in the literature. Thus, grounded theory methodology (Glaser & Strauss, 1967) was incorporated in the present study to investigate the actualities in the family After completing 5 sessions of in-meeting activities and 10 hours of fieldwork, the results indicate that the use of the five pillars of FACE not only increased the participants’ knowledge of the multiple dimensions of family literacy but also positively influenced their interest and love in reading. The contribution of this study also gives parents a broad overview and point of view on creating a successful family literacy culture.
