Abstract

Family learning is crucial in forming a child's early years and laying a solid basis for their future growth and development. Children's behavior and learning experiences can be strongly influenced by educational games and music in the home setting, which will ultimately have an impact on how they learn. With a focus on the planned behavior theory, instructional music and games, children's behavior, and environments, this study investigates how family learning affects schoolchildren's learning experiences in China. The current study collected data from school-going children in China, SPSS macros are employed in the data analysis process. A mixed methods technique is used in the research to collect and analyse both qualitative and quantitative data. To collect data at a specified moment, a cross-sectional design is used. The study recognizes the drawbacks of its limited sample size, which may limit generalizability because it exclusively comprises Chinese school-age children. The results of this study add to our knowledge of how family learning affects children's educational experiences by emphasizing the mediating role of children's behavior and the significance of fostering supportive learning settings. Despite the drawbacks, it is advised that future research use larger and more diverse samples, longitudinal designs, and advanced analytical techniques to provide a more thorough understanding of the intricate relationships between family learning, educational interventions, children's behavior, and learning outcomes.
