Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in early childhood education has emerged as a prominent area of research. This paper provides an overview of how AI technologies contribute to the advancement of early childhood education by enhancing learning experiences and outcomes. In recent years, the range of AI applications has expanded significantly, from intelligent toys to educational platforms, offering personalized and interactive learning opportunities. Studies have highlighted the transformative role of AI in family media literacy education and its potential in kindergarten education, such as its integration with traditional Chinese culture. However, several challenges accompany the application of AI, including aligning technological tools with educational goals, assessing their effectiveness, and addressing concerns about children’s privacy and data security. Additionally, improving educators’ abilities to adapt to and effectively leverage these new technologies remains an urgent priority. Looking ahead, AI holds immense potential for further innovation in early childhood education. Future efforts should prioritize in-depth empirical research to evaluate its educational outcomes and explore novel teaching methods and tools to create engaging and enriching learning experiences for young children.
