The average numbers before and after the use of interactive PowerPoint media are 11,875 and 19,75. This proved a significant difference before and after treatment. Based on the t-test using paired two samples for means, the tcount value = 10,47 while the ttable value at (α) = 0,05 or 2,131; therefore, tcount>ttable or 10,47>2,131. since tcount>ttable, the H0 is rejected and H1 is confirmed, which means there was an effect between the use of interactive PowerPoint on the symbolic thinking skills of early childhood at Tribrata Kindergarten, Tupa Village.
