Abstract
In recent times, the field of education has experienced significant technological advancements, especially in area of Artificial Intelligence (AI). A particularly groundbreaking development is the emergence of humanoid AI robots, which holds immense promise for enhancing children’s learning experiences during early childhood. Unlike other forms of AI, humanoid AI robots bear a closer resemblance to humans, making them more approachable and engaging for young children. This paper explores a practical framework for incorporating humanoid AI robots into early childhood education. This framework includes several key components: first, introducing AI concepts in a child-friendly manner; second, fostering a relationship between children and AI; third, designing developmentally appropriate activities facilitated by AI; and finally, addressing the challenges associated with integrating AI into early childhood classrooms. The aim is to utilize the potential of AI in a way that enriches the educational environment for young learners.
