TEACHING QUEUING CULTURE IN EARLY CHILDHOOD

Abstract

The culture of queuing or waiting turn is a simple behaviour that is sometimes forgotten by adults.
Behaviour in queuing or waiting their turn is strongly believed and implemented by people in many developed
countries such as America and Europe. However, in Indonesia there are still seen adults who deliberately and
do not want to queue or wait their turn for various reasons. In fact, it will trigger social conflicts in the community.
Therefore, inculcation of queuing culture needs to be taught and believed by individuals from an early age, so
that this queued behaviour can be well embedded and automatically becomes a behaviour that will be displayed
in everyday life. This paper is presented using the literature study method. Literature study or what is known as
literature review is a description of the theory, findings, and other research materials that are used as a basis for
research activities in preparing the framework of the problem formulation. In this paper, we will describe the role
of parents and teachers is specific and concrete in educating children to have queuing behaviour in waiting their
turn.
