ABSTRACT: Exploring the impact of early childhood education on cultural integration is essential for fostering inclusivity and understanding among diverse communities. This study aimed to evaluate how early childhood education programs contribute to cultural integration in young children. The objectives were to (1) assess improvements in children's understanding of different cultures, (2) evaluate the effectiveness of cultural integration activities in the curriculum, and (3) examine changes in children's behavior towards peers from different cultural backgrounds. A survey design was chosen to systematically collect data from participants, providing a comprehensive understanding of the topic. A purposive sample of 120 children aged 4-6 years, engaged in cultural education programs, was selected to ensure relevant experiences. The case study focused on an early childhood education center in Lagos State, known for its multicultural environment. Findings revealed significant improvements in children's understanding of different cultures, the effectiveness of cultural integration activities, and positive changes in behavior towards peers from diverse backgrounds. The study recommended integrating cultural integration education into early childhood curricula and providing training for educators to effectively promote inclusivity and understanding.
