ABSTRACT: The role of early childhood education in literacy development is crucial for understanding how early educational experiences shape children's reading and writing skills. This study examines how early childhood education programs influence literacy development. The objectives are to (1) assess improvements in children's reading and writing skills, (2) evaluate the integration of literacy activities in early childhood education curricula, and (3) examine changes in children's literacy engagement and performance. A survey design is justified as it enables comprehensive data collection on the role of early childhood education in literacy development. A purposive sample of 140 children from preschools in Oyo State was used. The case study focuses on a preschool known for its literacy-focused curriculum. Findings indicated significant improvements in children's reading and writing skills, the effectiveness of literacy activities, and positive changes in children's literacy engagement and performance. Recommendations included embedding comprehensive literacy activities into early childhood curricula and providing ongoing professional development for educators to support children's literacy development.
