ABSTRACT: Investigating the benefits of early childhood education on sustainable consumption practices is essential for fostering environmentally responsible behavior from a young age. This study aimed to evaluate how early childhood education programs influence children's understanding and practice of sustainable consumption. The objectives were to (1) assess improvements in children's knowledge of sustainable consumption, (2) evaluate the integration of sustainability activities in the curriculum, and (3) examine changes in children's consumption behavior. A survey design was chosen to systematically collect data from participants, providing a comprehensive understanding of the topic. A purposive sample of 110 children aged 4-6 years, engaged in sustainability education programs, was selected to ensure relevant experiences. The case study focused on an early childhood education center in Ekiti State, known for its environmental education initiatives. Findings revealed significant improvements in children's knowledge of sustainable consumption, the effectiveness of sustainability activities, and positive changes in consumption behavior. The study recommended integrating sustainable consumption education into early childhood curricula and providing training for educators to effectively teach these practices.
