<![CDATA[Gross motor development is a fundamental aspect in early childhood growth that supports the ability to interact actively and confidently with their environment. Gross motor activities include large muscle movements such as walking, running, jumping, and climbing, which not only improve physical strength and body coordination but also contribute to children's social, emotional, and cognitive development. This study aims to analyze the effect of kinesiology movements in supporting the development of gross motor skills in early childhood at Aisyiyah 1 Kindergarten, Bandar Lampung. The method used is direct observation of gross motor activities using movements such as star jumps, flying birds, body twists, walking horses, and jumping rabbits. The results of the study showed that these activities were effective in improving coordination, balance, and motor control in children aged 5-6 years, in accordance with the stages of gross motor development supported by Piaget's theory of motor and cognitive development and the dynamic system theory in kinesiology. Overall, these activities help children achieve basic motor competencies that underlie more complex physical and social skills in the future.]]>
