Implementasi Pembelajaran Kearifan Lokal Banyuwangi Sebagai Sarana Penguatan Jati Diri Anak Usia Dini

Abstract

The implementation of learning Banyuwangi local wisdom as a means of strengthening early childhood identity (AUD). This research uses a qualitative approach with an ethnographic method, which was carried out at NU Aliyan Muslimat Kindergarten, Banyuwangi. Through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, the study found that the introduction of local culture is essential for shaping children's character and introducing their identity. The local wisdom taught includes cultural values, traditions, and arts that are part of the life of the people of Banyuwangi. Although the challenges of globalization and modernization threaten the preservation of local culture, innovative approaches in education can help children stay connected to their cultural roots. These findings show that the integration of local wisdom in learning can strengthen children's identity and encourage them to appreciate the cultural heritage around them.
