Kuliah Kerja Nyata (KKN) positions children as a strategic target group given their role as the nation's future generation. This community service activity aims to describe the empowerment of children through agricultural and environmental education based on the Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach in Nanggulan Village, Cawas District, Klaten Regency, Central Java. The ABCD approach was implemented through five stages Discovery, Dream, Design, Define, and Destiny utilizing assets such as early childhood to elementary school-aged children, village officials, and Qur'anic education (TPA) teachers. Three graduated activities were Designed: Plant Tutoring, Ecoprint, and Microgreen Cultivation, carried out across five locations over approximately three weeks. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed descriptively. Results show the activities reached around 200 children across 10 RW with good participation, despite some facilitators' limitations in managing young participants. This program provided a positive alternative activity during school holidays while reviving children's interest in agriculture, marking a concrete step toward a Child Friendly Village.
