Observations show that most children at the Kawatuna Palu TPA are not yet proficient in reading, writing, and arithmetic due to family economic constraints. This community service activity aims to improve children's reading, writing, and arithmetic skills through the use of creative teaching media made from simple materials. The implementation method is a learning assistance in five meetings involving 25 children. The media used include Pancasila puzzles, an abacus, and a number wheel. Evaluation is carried out through observation and simple tests at the beginning and end of the activity. The results show an increase in children's abilities in reading (60% of children are fluent in reading simple words), writing (70% of children are able to copy sentences with capital and lowercase letters), and arithmetic (65% of children can sequence and count numbers correctly). In addition, the activity also fosters creativity, cooperation, and environmental awareness through the use of used materials.]]>
