ABSTRACT: The role of early childhood education in cultural identity formation is vital for fostering a sense of belonging and identity among young children. This study examines how early childhood education programs influence the development of cultural identity. The objectives are to (1) assess children's understanding and appreciation of their cultural heritage, (2) evaluate the integration of cultural identity activities in early childhood education curricula, and (3) examine changes in children's self-esteem and social interactions. A survey design is justified as it enables comprehensive data collection on the role of early childhood education in cultural identity formation. A purposive sample of 120 children from preschools in Kaduna State was used. The case study focuses on a preschool known for its cultural identity-focused curriculum. Findings indicated significant improvements in children's understanding and appreciation of their cultural heritage, the effectiveness of cultural identity activities, and positive changes in children's self-esteem and social interactions. Recommendations included embedding cultural identity activities into early childhood curricula and providing ongoing professional development for educators to support children's cultural identity formation.
