ABSTRACT: Early childhood education and creative problem-solving are closely linked, as early educational experiences play a pivotal role in fostering children's ability to think creatively and solve problems. This study explores how early childhood education programs influence creative problem-solving skills. The objectives are to (1) assess improvements in children's creative problem-solving abilities, (2) evaluate the integration of problem-solving activities in early childhood education curricula, and (3) examine changes in children's approach to challenges and innovation. A survey design is justified as it enables detailed data collection on educational impacts on creative problem-solving. A purposive sample of 110 children aged 4-6 years from preschools in Kaduna State was used. The case study focuses on a preschool known for its creative learning approach. Findings indicated significant improvements in children's creative problem-solving abilities, the effectiveness of problem-solving activities, and positive changes in children's approach to challenges and innovation. Recommendations included integrating creative problem-solving activities into early childhood curricula and providing ongoing professional development for educators to support children's creative problem-solving skills.
