There is ample evidence that families are important in supporting the development of giftedness in children. Although there has been a great deal of research addressing individual and school factors in promoting giftedness, the role of parents and caregivers is comparatively underresearched, particularly in Australia. This study investigated the ways in which parents supported their children’s development, drawing on the educational and learning capital framework within the Actiotope Model of Giftedness. A qualitative design was adopted and semistructured interviews were conducted with 32 parents and caregivers. The data demonstrated that parents draw on all 10 educational and learning resources in creating favorable environments to support their children’s development.

A key preschooler activity is playtime. When the children play, assistance is needed. The role of mothers in children’s development is very important, particularly with regards to the provision of appropriate games based on the child’s age.

This study aims to determine the role of working mothers with regards to play assistance and game selection in pre-school children. The study used a quantitative correlation design. The population and sample in this study were 81 mothers working in the Bandung Advent Hospital with pre-school age children (3-6 years), and a purposive sampling method was used. Data collection consisted of a questionnaire with 12 statements for the assistance element and 10 statements for the game choice element. The data was analyzed by using univariate and bevariat analysis.
