Challenges include weak memory, lack of concentration, difficulty in writing, and lack of cooperation between educators and parents. Solutions involve motivation, rewards, advice, and a supportive environment. Research implications/limitations: The research offers insights into BTAQ learning in early childhood, but its findings might be limited to the specific context of TPA Ulil Albab. Originality/value: This study contributes to understanding the dynamics of early Quranic education and provides practical recommendations for enhancing BTAQ learning experiences.
