Religious education plays a crucial role in shaping children's character and morals from an early age. TPA Al-Barokah is an Islamic educational institution that remains actively engaged in Quranic learning despite facility constraints due to ongoing mosque renovations. This study aims to identify the factors that stimulate children's enthusiasm for learning, analyse the roles of teachers and the surrounding environment in sustaining their motivation, and examine the impact of enthusiasm on the continuity of learning and children's character development. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings reveal that children's enthusiasm for learning is significantly influenced by inspirational teachers who use the talaqqi method and experience-based learning, active parental support, a positive peer environment, and innovative instructional methods. Learning continuity is maintained even under non-ideal conditions, demonstrating that motivation for religious learning depends not solely on physical facilities but also on strong intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Children's enthusiasm for religious learning positively impacts their character development, nurturing independence, discipline, responsibility, and a deep appreciation for Islamic knowledge. This study affirms the necessity of collaborative support from teachers, parents, and the community to ensure the continuity of religious education as a foundation for cultivating a morally upright generation.
