Description

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the story of Korean immigrant parents with preschool-age children regarding their preschool involvement and maintaining their cultural heritage. Data collection consisted of a questionnaire with forced-choice items and open-ended comments. These data were analysed using descriptive and content analysis. The results suggested that a consensus of the parents believed that early childhood education would nurture the children, help them develop English and socialization skills, and essentially provide them with the tools needed to prepare them for successful admission to kindergarten. Many parents, however, had concerns that the children would not retain the Korean language and culture which might eventually prevent the parents from being able to communicate with their children.
