Abstract

Innovation in early childhood education (PAUD) through the implementation of digital storybooks offers an engaging and effective learning approach. Digital storybooks combine text, images, sound, and interactivity, which can stimulate children's cognitive, social, and emotional engagement. This study aims to examine the role of digital storybooks as an innovation in PAUD learning and their effectiveness in enhancing children's learning interest. Digital storybooks have proven effective in improving children's understanding, memory, and social and language skills by providing an interactive learning experience. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method to explore the concept of digital transformation in PAUD education and the development of digital storybooks. The results show that digital storybooks can support children's fundamental development and facilitate their thinking process and attention during learning. This study also provides practical guidelines for PAUD teachers to integrate digital storybooks into the curriculum, considering pedagogical principles and children's developmental stages.
