Media Puzzle is a game in the form of random pieces of pictures, the stages of playing are starting by arranging the pieces of the picture into a complete picture, with the aim of improving children's motor and cognitive skills, solving problems, practicing patience and cooperation with friends. The purpose of this play therapy activity is to improve children's fine motor skills through play therapy using puzzle media. This service method is collaborative, with a play therapy approach involving writers and classroom teachers, with 20 preschool-age children participating. This activity was divided into 4 groups and was held on May 14, 2022, at Madrasah Cempaka. After the play therapy activity was completed, an award was given as an appreciation. The results of this activity showed that all participants when the play therapy activity took place actively participated in playing using puzzle media and the children were very enthusiastic and felt happy doing the play therapy activity. Based on the evaluation of the KPSP questionnaire from this activity, each child has different accuracy, but it can be concluded that overall pre-school-age children at Madrasah Cempaka have fine motor categories according to their age development.
