Abstract :Listening is one of the basic language skills and the most used skill in communication. Just as most human relations are based on listening, one of the main ways to obtain information, learn and understand is listening. Listening skill; Although it is as important as speaking, reading and writing skills, listening skill training is given less importance because it occurs spontaneously and does not require any other effort. In fact, without giving due importance to listening skills, development in other language skill areas cannot be expected. The way for children to correctly perceive the world and the environment they live in is through listening skills, and since babies begin to hear sounds from the seventh month of pregnancy, listening skills need to be developed from an early age. The role of family and education is important in developing listening skills.
