This paper seeks to explain the moral development of early childhood in the view of Lawrence Kohlberg. Research on Kohrlberg's development so far has been more targeted at the development of elementary age students to adults. This paper tries to analyze moral development at an early age, or age 4-6 years. Early Childhood according to Kohrlberg experienced a phase of moral development in the first stage (pre-conventional phase). In this period the child's moral development is influenced by the behavior of adults around the child (role model). The moral development of children does not occur suddenly but is attempted and intentional, in other words to achieve moral development in early childhood it is necessary to have moral education for early childhood. The interesting thing is that this moral development is always biased with a sense of injustice. Lawrence Kohlberg suggested that in conducting moral education should always be done with a sense of justice. Because justice is a major recognition of the same level and position, and become the most basic and general measuring tool. This discussion uses the method of library research. The results of this study indicate that educators (teachers) especially in early childhood in understanding the moral development of children, in addition to going through stages of moral development must also pay attention to justice in applying the stages of moral development.Keywords: Thought Lawrence Kohlberg, Early Childhood, Education Abstrak Tulisan ini berusaha menjelaskan tentang perkembangan moral anak usia dini dalam pandangan Lawrence Kohlberg.Penelitian tentang perkembangan Kohrlberg selama ini lebih banyak menyasar pada perkembangan peserta didik usia dasar sampai dewasa.Tulisan ini mencoba menganalisis perkembangan moral pada usia dini, atau usia 4-6 tahun. Anak Usia Dini menurut Kohrlberg mengalami fase perkembangan moral pada tahap yang pertama (fase pra konvensional). Pada masa ini perkembangan moral anak dipengaruhi oleh perilaku orang dewasa disekitar anak (suri tauladan). Perkembangan moral anak tidak terjadi dengan tiba-tiba tapi diusahakan dan disengaja, dengan kata lain untuk mencapai perkembangan moral anak usia dini maka perlu adanya pendidikan moral untuk anak usia dini. Hal yang menarik adalah bahwa perkembangan moral ini selalu biasdengan rasa ketidakadilan. Lawrence Kohlberg menyarankan dalam melakukan pendidikan moral hendaknya selalu dilakukan dengan rasa keadilan.Karena keadilan adalah suatu pengakuan utama terhadap tingkat dan kedudukan yang sama, dan menjadi alat ukur yang paling dasar dan umum.Pembahasan ini memakai metode penelitian kepustakaan. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pendidik (guru) terutama pada anak usia dini dalam   memahmi perkembangan moral anak, disamping melalui tahapan-tahapan perkembangan moral juga harus memperhatikan keadilan dalam menerapkan tahapan perkembangan moral.Kata kunci: Pemikiran Lawrence Kohlberg, Anak Usia Dini, Pendidikan

Habituation is the most common used form of moral education in early childhood education in Indonesia. However, this method has been found to be insufficient in contributing fully to young children’s moral development. An alternative method currently being promoted is the narrative method which involves the use of stories and storytelling. These two techniques provide children with justification to do good deeds and allow them to be critical of their actions. This research examined the best practices of teachers in the use of narrative method for the Moral Education of young children. Best practices show how we can use them to improve the teaching of Moral Education among young children and can serve as useful alternative to habituation. The findings revealed that there are five ways in which the kindergarten use stories and storytelling in teaching and learning moral education for young children, namely: to repeat the story; to include clear example; to explain the story; to dramatize the story; and to modify the story.

Partindo do entendimento de que a Educação Ambiental deve ser uma prática intencionalizada e coerente, este trabalho se propõe a realizar uma revisão bibliográfica que articule o campo teórico da Educação Ambiental com o da Educação Infantil, a fim de observar os limites e as possibilidades da prática docente ao tratar da construção ou apropriação de valores. Assim, os seguintes questionamentos norteiam a pesquisa: que práticas docentes podem ser identificadas em relação à apropriação de valores? Elas abarcam a temática ambiental? Em que contextos são pesquisadas? A Educação Infantil é um desses contextos? Para tal discussão foram levantados nove artigos internacionais, que levam o leitor a compreender que as práticas docentes em relação aos valores ensinados são distintas de um artigo para outro: sendo dois deles como prática moral, três como construção, dois como socialização, um como formação de hábitos e um como clarificação. Apenas dois dos artigos não abarcam a temática ambiental. Em relação ao contexto de pesquisa, neste levantamento os artigos estão assim distribuídos: cinco destinados à Infância - Educação Básica, um trata da Educação básica com adolescentes e três destinados ao Ensino Superior. Portanto, concluiu-se que a Educação Infantil é um dos contextos em que a Educação Ambiental tem sido pesquisada, principalmente, no que se refere à apropriação de valores pertinentes à temática ambiental. Palavras-chave: Educação Moral. Meio Ambiente. Infância. AbstractBased on the understanding that Environmental Education should be an intentional and coherent practice, this paper proposes to perform a literature review that articulates the theoretical field of Environmental Education with that of Early Childhood Education, in order to observe the limits and possibilities of teaching practice, when dealing with the value construction or appropriation. Thus, the following questions guide the research: What  teaching practices can be identified in relation to the values appropriation ? Do they cover the environmental theme? In what contexts are they researched? Is early childhood education one of these contexts? For this discussion nine international articles were raised, which lead the reader to understand that teaching practices in relation to the values taught are distinct from one article to another: two of them as moral practice, three as construction, two as socialization, one as habits formation and one as clarification. Only two of the articles do not cover the environmental theme. Regarding the research context, in this survey the articles are directed to: five for Childhood - Basic Education, one for Basic Education with adolescents and three for Higher Education.
