Abstract

Traditional dance is a dance that has certain rules that are passed down from generation to generation. To introduce Indonesian traditional dance to children, a fun training method is needed during training. This study aimed to improve children's traditional dance dancing skills through the dance training method with Playing Movement used during dance training. The study was conducted on 10 children, at Budi Mulia Kindergarten, South Tangerang. This study used the Classroom Action Research (CAR) Model Kemis Taggart method. The instruments for the ability to dance traditional dances for children aged 5-6 years in this assessment are: 1) Ability to move to the rhythm of the music; 2) Balance of body movements; 3) Coordination of body movements; 4) Ability to perform dance movement forms; 5) Ability to follow dance movements completely; 6) Flexibility; and 7) Ability to express oneself while dancing. The training activities were carried out 10 times, for 4 weeks. The Play Movement Training method was used at the beginning of the training, or as a warm-up, and at the end of the training or cooling down. During the observation in the pre-cycle, the average ability of children was at the 28% stage, at the undeveloped stage. After training using the Movement Play Exercise method for 3 meetings in cycle 1, it increased to 49%, still at the beginning of development stage. In cycle 2, it increased to 65%, which was at the development stage according to expectations. In cycle 3, it increased to 89%, which was at the very well-developed stage. So it can be concluded that the Movement Play Exercise method can improve the ability to dance traditional dances of children aged 5-6 years at Budi Mulia Kindergarten, South Tangerang.

Abstract

To introduce traditional dance to early childhood, interesting training methods and media in accordance with the child's development are needed, so as to arouse children's interest and love for traditional Indonesian dance. This study aimed to obtain an empirical data on the effect of training methods and video tutorials on the ability to recognize traditional Indonesian dance in children. Children’s ability to dance traditional dances referred to the motor skills of children aged 5-6 years. The training method was using a sports approach, consists of introduction regional knowledge of dance, a warm-up, traditional dance as the main exercise, and a cool-down. The warm-up and cool-down used play movements, which made children enjoyable and developmentally appropriate. Used experimental research methods 2x2 factorial design, which consists of groups that get treatment and control groups. The sampling technique was carried out by cluster random sampling, 43 children in 2 classes at 2 kindergartens (four classes), in South Tangerang, Indonesia. Data normality test with Lilliefors test found that all data were normal. Homogeneity test with Bartlett's test found that all data were homogeneous. For hypothesis testing, two-way analysis of variance / ANOVA was carried out, then to test the interaction was carried out with the Tukey test. Based on the results of the analysis of variance at a significant level α = 0.05, it was found that the score of the ability to recognize traditional Indonesian dances early childhood: the training method with a sports approach was better than the conventional training method; there was an interaction between training methods; Using video tutorial media was not better than audio media; with a sports approach and video tutorials. This study showed that using a sports-based training approach with play movements is a fun and developmentally appropriate method to introduce traditional dance to children. Further research is needed on a larger and broader scale to conclude that this method has the same effect on every traditional dance practice for early childhood children.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of parental-teacher engagement in play-based mathematical learning on the motor development and health outcomes of preschoolers. The research is grounded in socio-cultural and ecological systems theory, responding to the growing need for holistic, collaborative approaches in early childhood education that integrate academic, behavioral, and physical domains. Using a mixed-method sequential explanatory design, the study was conducted over three months in three early childhood centers in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia, involving 120 children aged 4–6 years, along with their teachers and parents. Quantitative data were collected using the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales–Second Edition (PDMS-2), a WHO-adapted Health Monitoring Checklist, and a validated observation rubric on adult collaboration. Results showed significant improvements in gross and fine motor skills (Cohen’s d = 1.98–2.63), and in health behaviors, including increased physical activity (+28%), healthier eating habits (+25%), and more consistent sleep routines (+13%). Based on semi-structured interviews and focus groups with 25 participants, the qualitative phase revealed themes such as strengthened home-school partnerships, embedded learning in daily routines, enhanced child engagement, and challenges related to time and resources. The study concludes that collaborative, play-based learning environments effectively support integrated child development, with sustained benefits when reinforced across home and school. These findings empirically support family-inclusive pedagogies and suggest the need for differentiated engagement models and longitudinal follow-up to maximize developmental outcomes.

Abstract

This study confirms that the traditional game Bentengan can serve as a contextual model for early childhood science learning, effectively integrating cognitive, motor, and social-emotional development. Empirical evidence suggests that embodied interaction during play enhances preschoolers’ conceptual understanding of force, motion, balance, and environmental phenomena, while also strengthening their gross and fine motor coordination. Theoretically, these findings contribute to embodied cognition studies by demonstrating how sensorimotor engagement functions as a foundation for abstract scientific reasoning in STEM domains. Practically, the integration of culturally grounded games provides a locally relevant and engaging alternative to conventional instruction, positioning Bentengan as a sustainable approach for culture-based preschool education that aligns with current curriculum reforms and the broader agenda of inclusive, active, and meaningful early science education.
