Abstract

Providing knowledge about nutritious food to young children is an essential step in shaping healthy eating habits and supporting their optimal growth and development. This community service activity aimed to enhance the understanding of students at TK A Aisyiyah Bustanul Athfal Bolihuangga, Gorontalo Regency, regarding the principles of balanced nutrition through engaging learning methods appropriate to their developmental stage. The program was implemented on October 14, 2025, involving 17 students, and utilized several approaches, including material delivery, educational video presentations, and interactive games that required students to sort nutritious and non-nutritious foods. The results showed that children became more capable of identifying healthy food types, actively participated in all activities, and demonstrated improved comprehension through visual and motor-based tasks. The learning-through-play approach proved effective in increasing students’ enthusiasm and fostering positive behaviors related to food choices. Overall, this activity provided an enjoyable and meaningful nutrition education experience that has the potential to support children’s health and learning abilities in the future.

Abstract

Breast milk is the best source of nutrition for babies and is recommended by the WHO to be given exclusively for the first six months of life. However, the coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in Gorontalo is still low, including in the working area of the East City Health Centre. One of the causes is the lack of knowledge among mothers about the benefits, breastfeeding techniques, breast milk storage, and stress management during breastfeeding. This activity aims to increase the knowledge of pregnant women through education using video and PowerPoint media in the BESTIE ASI (Breast Care, Essential Nutrients, Storage, Technique, and Stress Managed ASI) programme. The activity methods include planning, preparation, implementation of counselling, and evaluation using pre-tests and post-tests. There were 15 pregnant women participating in the activity. The evaluation results showed an increase in the average knowledge score from 46.67 on the pre-test to 70.67 on the post-test. Video and PowerPoint media were effective in increasing knowledge because they were able to present the material in an interesting, interactive, and easy-to-understand manner. Thus, educational activities using audio-visual media have been proven to support the improvement of pregnant women's readiness for exclusive breastfeeding.Keywords: exclusive breastfeeding, pregnant women, health education, video, PowerPoint

Abstract

Hand hygiene remains one of the essential factors influencing the health of school-aged children, who are particularly vulnerable to infectious diseases. Handwashing with soap (HWWS) is a simple yet highly effective measure in preventing the transmission of various illnesses. This community service program aimed to enhance the knowledge, awareness, and handwashing practices of second-grade students at SD IT Lukmanul Hakim, Limboto District, Gorontalo Regency. The activity was conducted on September 19, 2025, involving 26 students. The educational methods included material presentation, educational video screening, demonstration of proper handwashing steps, and interactive games using visual worksheets to strengthen students’ understanding. The results indicated that students participated enthusiastically, actively asked questions, and were able to correctly demonstrate the handwashing steps. The use of video media and interactive games proved effective in increasing comprehension and making the learning process more engaging and accessible for children. Overall, this program successfully promoted clean and healthy living behaviors among students, particularly in encouraging handwashing with soap as part of their daily routine.
