This study aims to determine children's listening skills through paper puppet media (Experimental Group), listening skills through picture book media (Control Group), the effect of using paper puppet media on children's listening skills. The method used in this research is quantitative using a quasi-experimental approach. Data collection techniques in the form of observation. Data analysis using normality test, homogeneity test, hypothesis test (t test). The results showed that there was an effect of using paper puppet media on children's listening skills. This can be seen from the average value of the experimental group which was originally 55.8 to 81.3 with very good interpretation. While in the control group the average value of the pretest was 50.7 and the posttest was 65.3 with the interpretation of the sufficient category. The results of the analysis calculation of the hypothesis test tcount = 2.403> ttable = 2.228 at a significant level of 5%. So it can be concluded that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. So there is an effect of using paper puppet media on children's listening skills.]]>
