Background: Prevalence of children and teenagers smoker in Indonesia was more than 45%. This shows the gap between results and efforts of the Indonesian government to reduce tobacco cigarette consumption rate through various programs.

The sample size was 203 subjects divided into six groups. The study consists of a pre-test, intervention, and post-test. Level of knowledge about cigarette was determined by questionnaire and divided into 3 levels (good, average, and poor). Interactive communication was given to three groups of students, and the other got advertisement video as an intervention.  Result: The overall level of knowledge among children and teenager was good (50.2%), average (37.4%), and poor (12.3%).
