Abstract: STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) learning approach is becoming increasingly important in this modern age as a way to foster cross-disciplinary understanding and critical skills from an early age. STEAM combines science, engineering, technology, art, and mathematics to shape the skills of the future. The study aims to analyze STEAM material and identify best practices and their effectiveness in early childhood education. The research method used is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR), which explores a wide range of STEAM literature related to early childhood learning such as articles, books, web, and more. SLR allows researchers to gather and evaluate findings from various studies, providing a comprehensive understanding of the STEAM implementation. STEAM learning at an early age is essential to form a solid foundation, covering basic knowledge of science and technology, as well as critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills required in a complex world. The STEAM approach encourages children to think holistically and connect different concepts of discipline in real-life situations. Therefore, the implementation of STEAM in early childhood education is seen as a valuable investment in the development of children and the progress of society. With strong skills and understanding from an early age, children are ready to face the challenges of the future and make a positive contribution to society. The research is expected to provide insights and practical recommendations to support the development and implementation of STEAM in early childhood education curricula.Pendekatan pembelajaran STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) semakin penting di era modern ini sebagai cara untuk mendorong pemahaman lintas disiplin dan keterampilan kritis sejak dini. STEAM menggabungkan sains, rekayasa, teknologi, seni, dan matematika untuk membentuk keterampilan masa depan. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis materi STEAM dan mengidentifikasi praktik terbaik serta efektivitasnya di pendidikan anak usia dini. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Systematic Literature Review (SLR), yang menelusuri berbagai literatur terkait pembelajaran STEAM bagi anak usia dini seperti pada artikel, buku, web, dan lainnya. SLR memungkinkan peneliti mengumpulkan dan mengevaluasi temuan dari berbagai studi, memberikan pemahaman komprehensif mengenai implementasi STEAM. Pembelajaran STEAM di usia dini penting untuk membentuk fondasi kokoh, mencakup pengetahuan dasar sains dan teknologi, serta kemampuan berpikir kritis, kreativitas, dan keterampilan pemecahan masalah yang dibutuhkan dalam dunia yang kompleks. Pendekatan STEAM mendorong anak berpikir holistik dan menghubungkan berbagai konsep disiplin dalam situasi nyata. Oleh karena itu, pengimplementasian STEAM di pendidikan anak usia dini dianggap sebagai investasi berharga untuk perkembangan anak-anak dan kemajuan masyarakat. Dengan keterampilan dan pemahaman kuat sejak dini, anak-anak siap menghadapi tantangan masa depan dan berkontribusi positif dalam masyarakat. Penelitian ini diharapkan memberikan wawasan dan rekomendasi praktis untuk mendukung pengembangan dan penerapan STEAM dalam kurikulum pendidikan anak usia dini.
