Abstract

Kidney health problems among children are increasingly prevalent, with many school-aged children even requiring hemodialysis. This condition is often caused by poor hydration behaviors, such as inadequate water intake, frequent consumption of packaged beverages, and improper urination habits. A lack of understanding about proper hydration practices for kidney health is a key factor contributing to these behaviors. This community service program aimed to improve children’s awareness and help them develop positive habits related to kidney health. The activity included interactive health education sessions using animated videos and urine color analysis screenings. The results showed a significant increase in students' understanding of kidney function (pre-test vs. post-test scores. This program highlights the importance of early health education, school-based interventions, and multisectoral collaboration in preventing kidney disease among children. These findings support the need for scalable and sustainable health promotion strategies in elementary schools to foster long-term kidney health awareness

Abstract

The rising consumption of packaged sweetened beverages among children poses serious public health concerns, particularly for kidney health. These drinks, commonly containing high sugar levels, artificial colorings, and preservatives, are aggressively marketed to children through appealing packaging and strategic advertisement placements. Indonesia ranks third in Southeast Asia for sweetened beverage consumption, with 62% of children reportedly consuming them at least once a week. Despite the health risks, public awareness—especially among parents and educators—remains limited. This community service initiative aimed to educate kindergarten-aged children on the dangers of sugary packaged beverages through an interactive storytelling method at TK Aisyiyah 7, Magelang CityA total of 30 students participated in the activity, which involved pre- and post-assessment test using an interactive game-based questionnaire consisting of three short, image-supported questions related to the educational material to assess students’ knowledge before and after the intervention. An original storytelling session titled “The Adventure of the Brain, Kidney, and Bladder”, the use of educational puppets and visuals, and a health-themed sing-along. Results showed high engagement from children and improved knowledge retention as evidenced by increased post-test scores. The initiative successfully demonstrated that storytelling is an effective medium for early health education, fostering awareness of kidney health and promoting healthier beverage choices among young children.
