This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of health cadres in monitoring the growth and development of children aged 0–5 years in Banjar Mambang Gede, Mambang Village, Selemadeg Timur District, Tabanan Regency, Bali. The main problem faced by the partners is the limited understanding of cadres regarding child anatomy, cognitive development, and language stimulation through children's literature. The methods used include offline counseling with an interactive educational approach using PowerPoint presentations, anatomical videos, anatomy-based applications, and hands-on practice through storybooks, children's poetry, and educational games. The activity begins with a pre-test and ends with a post-test to evaluate the improvement of cadres' knowledge. The results of the activity show an increase in cadres’ understanding of anatomical, cognitive, and early childhood language stimulation aspects, with a minimum target of 80% of participants being able to understand and apply the provided materials. In addition, cadres demonstrated improved skills in educating parents and in conducting more optimal posyandu (integrated health service post) activities. The outputs of this activity include increased cadre capacity, scientific publications, and activity documentation.
