<![CDATA[Stimulation plays an important role in optimizing children's growth and development, especially in early childhood. Stimulation is needed to match the characteristics of boys' and girls' motor development, so that they can optimize their motor skills more effectively. The purpose of this study was to develop a gender-based game model that can stimulate basic motor skills in early childhood, and then evaluate the validation, practicality, and effectiveness aspects of the model. The research method used consisted of six main stages, namely: needs analysis, identification of game models, prototype development, expert testing for validation, small-scale trials, and ending with field tests. This data collection was carried out through questionnaires to teachers and parents, direct observation of children's play activities, and interviews to gain deeper insight into the responses of educators. The results of the study consistently showed that structured physical activity interventions significantly improved motor, cognitive, social, and emotional development in early childhood. Gender differences in physical activity patterns indicate the importance of designing inclusive and engaging movement-based games aimed at boys and girls.]]>
