Abstract

This study aims to identify the effect of the Stacking Blocks game on the cognitive development of early childhood students at TK Telkom Gorontalo. The background of this research is based on the initial condition of children who showed variations in their ability to recognize colors, shapes, sizes, as well as basic concepts of grouping and arranging objects. Educational games such as Stacking Blocks are believed to serve as an enjoyable yet effective alternative for cognitive stimulation. This study employed an experimental method with a One Group Pre-Test Post-Test design. The research sample consisted of 15 children aged 5 to 6 years, both boys and girls. The research instrument was an observation sheet of children's cognitive development, which included indicators of recognizing, naming, classifying, and arranging blocks according to color, shape, size, and balance strategies. The treatment was conducted over eight sessions, each lasting 60–120 minutes. Data were analyzed using a t-test to determine the difference between pre-test and post-test results. The findings indicated an increase in the average score from 31.6 on the pre-test to 38.733 on the post-test, where the t-count value (14.10) was higher than the t-table value (2.145). These results demonstrate that the Stacking Blocks game has a significant effect on the cognitive development of early childhood students. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of Stacking Blocks provides effective cognitive stimulation and supports the development of thinking, grouping, and problem-solving abilities in young children at TK Telkom Gorontalo

Abstract

This research was carried out to portray the parenting practices used by parents and the adaptability of children at PAUD An-Nisa, as well as to analyze the connection between these two aspects. The results reveal that the parenting styles of parents are at a moderate level, indicating that parenting is generally adequate but still needs improvement, particularly in communication, discipline, and emotional support. Meanwhile, children’s adaptability is categorized as good, demonstrated by their ability to interact, manage emotions, and adjust to the learning environment at the PAUD. The analysis further identifies a positive correlation between parenting style and children’s adaptability. This suggests that the better the parenting approach, the stronger the child’s ability to adapt to the school setting. Nevertheless, a child’s adaptability is influenced not only by parenting practices but also by factors such as the learning environment at PAUD, teacher involvement, interactions with peers, and individual child characteristics. In conclusion, the study highlights that parenting style plays a significant role in enhancing children’s adaptability, though successful adjustment also depends on a supportive educational environment and effective collaboration between parents and the school.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the relationship between the quality of caregiver–child interaction and the level of self-confidence among early childhood students at TK Negeri Pembina Kota Timur. The interaction quality assessed in this research includes aspects of attention, warmth, responsiveness, and support provided by caregivers throughout the children’s learning activities. A quantitative approach, employing a descriptive–correlational method, was used to obtain measurable insights into the relationship between the two variables. Data were gathered through direct observation and questionnaires distributed to teachers and parents, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlation techniques. The findings indicate that the quality of caregiver interaction falls into the good category, as reflected in the average score of 13.3. The results for children’s self-confidence also fall under the good category, with an average score of 9.5. This indicates that children are beginning to show greater courage in speaking, express their opinions more openly, and demonstrate initiative during classroom activities. The comparison between the two variables reveals a tendency that more positive caregiver interactions are associated with higher levels of children’s self-confidence. These results emphasize that warm, responsive, and consistent interactions play a crucial role in fostering self-confidence in early childhood, highlighting the importance for caregivers and teachers to maintain communication patterns and emotional support that align with the developmental needs of young children.

Abstract

Play activities hold an essential role in early childhood learning because they allow children to recognize different emotions, understand social rules, and develop interaction skills with those around them. This study aims to examine the relationship between the quality of play services and the social–emotional development of children aged 5–6 years at TK Negeri Pembina, Kecamatan Kota Tengah. The research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design. A total of 14 children from Group B were selected as participants, and data were collected through direct observations during play activities as well as questionnaires completed by parents. The findings indicate that the quality of play services is categorized as good, with an average score of 23.8. Meanwhile, the children’s social–emotional development is categorized as very good, with an average score of 37.4. These results suggest that the play services provided by the school have a positive impact on children’s social and emotional growth. However, further improvements in the quality of play services are still needed to ensure more optimal stimulation. Overall, the study highlights that well-designed play services significantly contribute to supporting early childhood social–emotional development.

Abstract

This study was conducted to identify the extent to which play activities influence the independence of group B children aged 4–6 years at Pembina State Kindergarten, North Kota District. The method used was a quantitative approach with an experimental design, involving 15 children as samples. Data collection was carried out through observation, questionnaires, and documentation, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression tests. The results of the study showed that play activities have a significant impact on increasing children's independence. Various forms of play such as obstacle courses, writing along the lines, and free play provide opportunities for children to manage themselves, make simple decisions, demonstrate responsibility, and try new challenges. Aspects of social independence were also seen to develop through children's abilities to share, cooperate, and tidy up play equipment. These findings confirm that play activities are not merely recreational activities, but also effective learning tools to support the development of early childhood independence. Therefore, play activities are worthy of being implemented as a meaningful learning strategy in increasing children's independence in a kindergarten environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of implementing a STEM approach through learning differentiation on children's emotional abilities aged 5–6 years. Research uses a quantitative, quasi-experimental, nonequivalent control-group design. Subjects, 20 children in total, were divided into experimental and control groups. Data collected through observation and the structured use of the instrument to assess emotional ability, including four aspects: introduction to emotions, self-control, empathy, and expression of positive emotions. Data analysis was carried out using paired t-test, independent t-test, and gain score analysis. Research results show that both groups demonstrate significant emotional ability (p < 0.05), and the improvement in the experimental group is greater than in the control group. The average posttest score in the experimental group was 72.3, while the average score in the control group was 55.0. The effect size value (Cohen's d) of 4.91 indicates that the intervention has a very strong influence. Findings show that learning STEM-based skills through a differentiation approach is effective in developing children's abilities at an early age. Approach: This provides experience, challenging, collaborative, and adaptive learning, thereby supporting optimal development of regulation, emotions, and empathy in children.

Abstract

Early childhood character building requires strong collaboration between teachers and parents. Yet, many parents still delegate all educational responsibility to schools, leading to a lack of continuity in the process of instilling values. The "Building Collaborative Leadership Between Teachers and Parents to Become Role Models for Early Childhood Character" activity was conducted to enhance understanding of the roles of both parties in providing consistent role models for children. Through initial observations, panel presentations, and interactive discussions, findings revealed that a lack of parental involvement impacts children's social and emotional development, including emotional control, discipline, and learning motivation. The results of the activity indicate that strong leadership collaboration, harmonious communication, and behavioral consistency between home and school can strengthen children's character and create a more positive, nurturing environment that supports their optimal development.

Abstract

Early literacy readiness is a fundamental foundation for children's language development and future academic success. This community service program aimed to accelerate reading readiness through two-syllable word recognition training using visual media at PAUD An-Nisa, Gorontalo City. The activity involved children aged 4–5 years and adopted a participatory learning through play approach supported by word cards and familiar object illustrations. Data were collected through participatory observation focusing on word recognition, picture-word matching, verbal responses, learning engagement, and the level of assistance required during activities. The findings revealed improvements in children's ability to recognize and pronounce two-syllable words, connect written symbols with visual representations, and participate actively in learning tasks. High levels of enthusiasm, concentration, and verbal interaction were consistently observed throughout the program. Individualized scaffolding also facilitated broader participation and supported the development of learning independence. The integration of visual media, play-based learning, and differentiated support effectively strengthened early reading readiness among young children.

Abstract

In addition to the positive findings regarding the effectiveness of instructional videos in enhancing reading skills, this study also highlights the importance of integrating technology into early childhood education. The use of instructional videos provides an engaging and interactive learning experience for children, making the learning process more enjoyable and effective. Children at TK Irama Jaya were able to visualize and connect sounds with letters and words, which is a crucial aspect of developing reading skills at an early age. Furthermore, the study reveals that instructional videos cater to different learning styles, allowing children to absorb information through auditory and visual channels. This multisensory approach enhances retention and understanding, especially for young learners who are just beginning to master reading. The videos also offer repetition and consistency, allowing children to revisit lessons at their own pace, thus reinforcing their learning process. The improvement observed in the post-test scores suggests that instructional videos can serve as a valuable tool in early childhood education, complementing traditional teaching methods. However, the study also indicates that while instructional videos are beneficial, they should be used in conjunction with other pedagogical techniques, such as interactive reading activities and teacher-guided lessons, to maximize learning outcomes. It is recommended that other schools, particularly those in remote or underserved areas, consider incorporating instructional videos into their teaching practices. The accessibility and cost-effectiveness of these videos make them an ideal resource for improving the quality of education in early childhood settings. Further research could explore the long-term effects of instructional videos on reading fluency and other areas of early literacy development.
