<![CDATA[This study aims to improve color recognition skills in children aged 4-5 years through colored block media at KB Negeri 30 Duri Kepa. Color recognition ability is an important aspect of early childhood cognitive development that needs to be stimulated from an early age. The research employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) using the Kemmis and McTaggart model, consisting of four stages: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The study was conducted in two cycles with each cycle consisting of 5 meetings involving 10 children (3 boys and 7 girls). Data collection instruments included observation and documentation with five indicators of color recognition ability: pointing to colors, grouping colors, naming colors, distinguishing colors, and matching colors. The results showed a significant improvement in children's color recognition ability from the pre-cycle stage (0% VWB) to Cycle I (10% VWB), and further increased to 90% VWB in Cycle II. This improvement was also evident in the developing (D) indicator reaching 70% in Cycle I and 0% in Cycle II, and developing as expected (DE) reaching 50% in Cycle I and 40% in Cycle II. Colored block media proved effective because it provides concrete and manipulative learning experiences that align with the characteristics of early childhood. This study recommends the use of colored block media as an alternative learning media to improve color recognition skills in early childhood.]]>
