<![CDATA[This community service activity is motivated by the importance of instilling character values and cultural identity from an early age through literacy. The main focus of this activity is mentoring the design of picture story books based on Ngada local wisdom at the TKK Negeri Bajawa. The solutions offered in this program are comprehensively designed to systematically address these problems. The output targets to be achieved in this community service activity include the production of a prototype picture story book based on Ngada local wisdom that is ready to be printed and can be directly used as teaching materials in the classroom. The implementation method used is a participatory workshop and ongoing mentoring. The activity stages begin with a needs analysis and inventory of cultural values, followed by intensive training sessions on scriptwriting and digital illustration techniques. Active participation of partners is strongly emphasized, where teachers are directly involved as content creators from the planning stage to finalization. This program is expected to strengthen cultural literacy while enriching the treasury of PAUD learning media in Ngada Regency. The results of the community service activity show that this mentoring program is able to improve teachers' understanding and skills in designing picture story books based on local wisdom. The teacher participants in the training successfully drafted several story scripts highlighting Ngada cultural values such as mutual cooperation, respect for nature, and local traditions relevant to the lives of young children. Furthermore, the teachers gained basic skills in using simple design applications to create engaging digital illustrations that align with the learning characteristics of early childhood.]]>
