Character education is important because it seeks to impart to people principles like respect and responsibility. Consequently, it is crucial to initiate this kind of education at an early age when their physical, mental, emotional, and psychological development is at its peak. In this study, a qualitative phenomenological strategy was employed, and the data was discussed descriptively. There were 109 parents whose children were in preschool and who met the requirements to take part in the study. The results showed the importance of parents' involvement in educating children about their character from an early age. Moreover, a significant correlation between parents' knowledge and children's character education was found in this study. However, parent involvement and support showed a less significant correlation than the parent's knowledge, as there were two instruments used in both indicators that showed a less significant correlation.
