The digital era has changed parenting patterns and the way parents stimulate early childhood development. Digital devices such as smartphones, tablets, and television are now widely used by families, including those who have young children. This condition creates both opportunities and challenges for children’s growth and development. This article aims to analyze the transformation of parenting patterns and stimulation of early childhood development in the digital era. The method used is a literature study by reviewing recent scientific journals and books. The results show that digital media can support children’s cognitive and language development if used properly. However, excessive and uncontrolled use may cause problems in social, emotional, and physical development. Therefore, parental guidance is very important in managing children’s digital activities.
