Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has had an impact on the world of early childhood education, one of which is the Learning from Home (BdR) policy. The pandemic cannot stop children's rights from advancing from PAUD to SD. Parents are increasingly responsible for preparing their children to enter elementary school. This study aimed to find a relationship between parental involvement and children's learning readiness to enter elementary school. The study was conducted on 98 prospective new students of MIT Bhakti Ibu. Data was collected by filling out questionnaires by parents. Parental involvement used Epstein's model of parenting, communication and learning at home.

The questionnaire instrument has been validated by experts, and its validity and reliability have been measured. The results of the study for parental involvement 43 parents had a very high level of involvement, 53 were high, and 2 people were in the moderate category. A total of 54 children are very ready, 40 are quite ready, and 4 are doubtful about their readiness to enter elementary school.
