REVIEW OF EARLY CHILDHOOD MAGAZINES IN TERMS OF UNESCO UNIVERSAL VALUES: THE CASE OF CURIOUS KIDS

Abstract

This research aims to reveal the extent to which UNESCO universal values are included in the "Curious Little" children's magazine published for early childhood. Data were collected through document analysis within the scope of the qualitative research method. In this direction, a total of fifty-five issues of the magazine for the years 2017 and 2021 were examined in terms of twelve universal values included in the "Living Values Education Program" determined by UNESCO. Based on these results, unity, cooperation, responsibility, happiness, and love were among the most reflected values . In contrast, honesty, tolerance, and peace are values that are rarely reflected. Similarly, the value of humility was unfortunately not included in any issue. The results obtained in this study are largely similar to the previous study on the same subject and magazine before the 2016 year. The only significant difference from that research is that in the last five years, the value of unity has been given more space in the magazine.
