Awareness of the importance of science in children will be higher if we realize that we live in a dynamic and changing world continuously, the more complex the scope, and of course will increasingly require science. So future predictions of life's challenges make science's binding for children absolute and science embedded within them as a way of seeking truth in future lives. They must be equipped with strong literacy skills in accordance with early childhood development until the grade elementary school, especially aspects of language development including reading, speaking and writing skills.
