This study uses a design and development research (DDR) involving two phases. In the first phase, the design and development phase, the framework is formulated by obtaining experts’ consensus using Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM) involving 14 experts in early childhood education and mobile learning. A mobile educational application for early reading among kindergarten children, Adik Jom Baca, is developed according to the framework using prototyping method. In the second phase, the implementation and evaluation phase, Adik Jom Baca is evaluated in terms of usability and impact.
