In this article, we exemplify and discuss how preschool science education may contribute to Education for Sustainability (EfS). We draw on data from science activities in fourteen Swedish preschools, in which we have previously identified examples of ‘multidimensional science teaching’, hence, teaching that intertwines children’s science learning with multiple dimensions of children’s lives, such as emotions, fantasy, play and aesthetic modes of expressions. By re-analysing these activities through an EfS lense, we show several examples of how multidimensional science teaching provide opportunities for children to develop agency and empowerment as well as connectedness with the environment, and some examples of creative problem solving. Yet, we advocate that teachers’ active participation is crucial for realising multidimensional science teaching in a way that contributes to EfS.

This research aims to describe the effect of Creative Problem Solving learning implementation on social science learning results reviewed from multicultural attitudes. The research design uses Posttest only control group design. The primary school student research population is 401 students. The sample consisted of 120 students divided into two experiment classes and two control classes with random sampling group techniques. Data analysis is done with ANAVA. The results showed: a) the results of Social Science study between students who participated in Creative Problem Solving learning and students who participated in conventional learning with a score of  22,284 >   (3,93), b) influence between the application of creative problem solving learning and multicultural attitude to social science learning results with a score of  66,428 <   (3.97), c) social science learning results between students who participate in creative problem solving and students who follow conventional learning, in students who have a high multicultural attitude with a score of  31,396 <   (4,11), d) the results of social science studies between students who follow creative problem solving learning and students who follow conventional learning, students with a low multicultural attitude with a score of  9,928 <   (4.11).

The learning tools developed are science learning tools using creative problem solving models on static electricity material in the ninth grade of junior high school, in the form of lesson plans, student worksheet and test instruments. The purpose of this research is to produce science learning products with creative problem solving models that are valid and suitable for use in school. The data analysis technique in this study used descriptive analysis, by calculating the validation score for each assessment indicator. The results showed that the value of the validity of science learning tools using creative problem solving models was declared valid with an overall average score of 4.44 very valid categories. Likewise, the empirical validity of the test instrument obtained valid results for each item and was reliable at a value of 0.844 in the high category
