Abstract

Self-confidence is a fundamental aspect of social-emotional development in early childhood, influencing children’s ability to interact, make decisions, and face challenges within the learning environment. This study aims to theoretically examine how group activities can serve as an effective strategy for fostering self-confidence in early childhood through positive social experiences, collaboration, and emotional support from peers and educators. This research employs a literature study method by reviewing scientific articles, academic books, and research findings from at least the last five years. The analysis was conducted using content analysis techniques to identify the relationship between group activities and self-confidence development based on social-emotional theories, Erikson’s initiative stage, Vygotsky’s social interaction theory, and the concept of self-efficacy. The findings indicate that structured, collaborative, and developmentally appropriate group activities effectively enhance children’s sense of competence, courage, and independence. Therefore, group activities can be utilized as a strong pedagogical approach to support the development of self-confidence in early childhood.Keywords: Self-confidence; early childhood; group activities.

Abstract

ABSTRAK                                                                                     Terbatasnya integrasi konsep sains dan matematika dalam pendidikan anak usia dini masih menjadi tantangan yang perlu diatasi melalui pendekatan kontekstual berbasis aktivitas sehari-hari. Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan meningkatkan pemahaman ilmiah, keterampilan logis, serta karakter anak melalui praktik perawatan pakaian sebagai media pembelajaran. Metode pelaksanaan dilakukan dengan praktikum berbasis pusat sains tematik yang mencakup empat tahap, yaitu merendam, mencuci, menjemur, dan melipat pakaian. Mitra kegiatan adalah TK Annisa Tarakan dengan sasaran 12 anak usia 5–6 tahun. Evaluasi dilaksanakan melalui observasi langsung, catatan anekdot, daftar periksa indikator perkembangan, serta dokumentasi foto. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan pada softskill anak, yaitu rasa ingin tahu ilmiah (83%), tanggung jawab (76%), dan refleksi emosional (71%). Selain itu, terdapat penguatan hardskill berupa pemahaman bahan pembersih, pengamatan perubahan fisik, serta penerapan konsep matematika dasar seperti pengukuran waktu, klasifikasi bentuk, dan simetri. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa rutinitas harian dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai media edukatif yang bermakna, ekonomis, dan dapat direplikasi di lingkungan PAUD dengan keterbatasan sumber daya.Kata kunci: Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini; Pembelajaran Kontekstual; Sains; Matematika Dasar. ABSTRACTThe limited integration of science and mathematics concepts in early childhood education remains a challenge that requires contextual approaches based on daily activities. This community service program aimed to enhance children’s scientific understanding, logical skills, and character development through clothing care practices as a learning medium. The implementation method employed thematic science-center practicum activities consisting of four stages: soaking, washing, drying, and folding clothes. The partner institution was TK Annisa Tarakan, involving 12 children aged 5–6 years. Evaluation was conducted through direct observation, anecdotal records, developmental checklists, and photo documentation. The results indicated significant improvement in children’s soft skills, including scientific curiosity (83%), responsibility (76%), and emotional reflection (71%). In addition, the program strengthened hard skills such as understanding cleaning materials, observing physical changes, and applying basic mathematical concepts including time measurement, shape classification, and symmetry. These findings demonstrate that daily routines can serve as meaningful and economical educational media, which are replicable in early childhood education settings with limited resources.Keywords: Early Childhood Education; Contextual Learning, Science; Basic Mathematics.
