Abstract :
The period of the COVID-19 pandemic impacted
education, especially on early childhood education aged 5-6
years. Online or online learning is a new thing for educators
and students, especially in early childhood. This study aims
to determine the effect of online learning on developing
language aspects of children aged 5-6 years. The method
used is True Experimental Design by comparing face-toface learning at school and online education at home. The
research subjects consisted of two groups, namely
experimental and control, with 40 PAUD children from
Kindergarten Schools in Surabaya and Gresik. Based on the
Asymp.Sig value shows that online learning significantly
affects early childhood language development during the
Covid-19 pandemic. The reason is, face-to-face learning
cannot be done optimally, with reduced learning hours
during the Covid-19 pandemic. Conversely, online learning
can be done anywhere and anytime, even though the place
and distance are different. 0.000 < 0.05. Online learning that
is carried out has the advantage of not having space and
time boundaries so that the need for increasing children's
speaking, reading, and writing skills can be met.
