Abstract

Being one of the many important tools to educate children, folktales are rarely evaluated. Parents and educators tend to put too much trust on folktales that they never question values embedded in folktales. As a result, many folktales remain static despite the growth and change in society, which causes disconnection in the education of young generation. This is especially true in the Indonesian context. In this study, 199 Indonesians participated in the survey on their judgement of values embedded in today’s Indonesian folktales and on the necessity to alter some folktales. The result of the survey suggests that the respondents can see the positive and negative elements incorporated in Indonesian folktales. This fact underlines the urgency of rewriting and reconstructing Indonesian folktales. This paper addresses the need to reconstruct those folktales that are not anymore suitable for today’s society.
