ABSTRACT: Early childhood education (ECE) plays a vital role in promoting fairness among young children, which is essential for their moral and social development. This study explores how ECE programs foster a sense of fairness in children. The objectives are to (1) assess the understanding and practice of fairness in children attending ECE programs, (2) evaluate the impact of ECE activities that teach fairness, and (3) examine the differences in fairness perception between children who attend ECE programs and those who do not. A survey design was employed to gather quantitative data on fairness perception and qualitative insights from educators and parents. A purposive sample of 140 children from preschools in Osun State was selected. The case study focuses on preschools known for their fairness-promoting initiatives. Findings indicated that children in ECE programs had a better understanding and practice of fairness compared to those not in such programs. Structured activities and discussions on fairness were highly effective. Recommendations include integrating fairness-focused activities into ECE curricula and providing resources for educators to effectively teach fairness.
