Abstract

Early literacy is universally acknowledged as the foundation for lifelong learning, academic success, and holistic development. It is during the formative years, typically from birth to age eight, that children acquire foundational skills in reading, writing, and communication. These skills are integral not only to academic achievement but also to overall personal and social development (Saracho, 2023; Salvatierra & Cabello, 2022).
