This article addresses the growing integration of digital culture in early childhood education, exploring digital tools, impacts on child development, advantages and challenges associated with the use of technology in this context. The literature review reveals a growing trend in the use of educational applications, digital games and other relevant digital resources in early childhood education classrooms. While technology offers opportunities for personalization of learning and development of skills such as language and problem-solving, it also presents challenges, including inequalities in access, concerns about inappropriate content, and the need for proper supervision. This study contributes to the field of early childhood education by providing a comprehensive analysis of the benefits and challenges of digital culture, highlighting implications for educational practice, and suggesting future directions for research.
