When children are between five and six years old, their fine motor skills do not develop optimally because there are not enough interesting learning activities to develop them. As can be observed when children hold a pencil, there are still children who have difficulty holding a pencil correctly. This is why a study on the effect of jumputan batik on the development of fine motor skills in children was conducted. Finding out how jumputan batik activities affect children's fine motor skills is the main objective of this study. Quasy Experiment technique was used in this quantitative study. Fifteen students from classes B1 and B2 formed the study population, which included all students at TK N Sapta Marga 1. Class B1 was the control class while class B2 was the experimental class with the sampling technique used being Purposive Sampling. The data collection procedure was through testing, observation, and documentation. The data analysis procedure included normality test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis test. By using SPSS 25.0 for Windows and a significance threshold of 5% (0.05), the data results were processed. The study found that the control group achieved an average score of 15.47 on the pre-test, while the experimental group achieved an average score of 16.00. After treatment, the average post-test score was 24.33 for the experimental group and 22.20 for the control group. The t-test obtained from the two-tailed t-test was 0.043 <0.05. Finally, there was a significant effect between the activity of making jumputan batik on children's fine motor skills.
