Abstract

Loose Parts is one of the media used to develop fine motor skill of early childhood aged 5-6 years. This study aims to determine the development of fine motor skill of early childhood aged 5-6 years before and after using Loose Parts media, and to determine the effect of using Loose Parts media on the development of fine motor skill of early childhood aged 5-6 years at PAUD Dahlia Rejasari. This study uses a quantitative method under a pre-experimental design. The results of the study assert that before being given treatment in the form of using the Loose Parts media, the development of early childhoods’ fine motor skill showed the results of “Beginning to Develop”. After being given treatment in the form of using the Loose Parts media, the development of early childhoods’ fine motor skill showed the results of “Developed Very Well”. Meanwhile, based on the results of the t-test, it is stated that t-count> t-table, which shows 9.454> 2.201 at a significance level of 0.05, at which H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted. The data confirms that there is an effect of using the Loose Parts media on the development of fine motor skill of early childhood aged 5-6 years at PAUD Dahlia Rejasari.

Abstract

Early childhood, especially in the age range of 0 to 8 years, is a crucial stage in the process of human growth and development because in this period there is an acceleration of brain development. One of the important factors that influence this stage is cognitive stimulation, which includes the ability to think, recognize patterns, solve problems, and understand cause-and-effect relationships. Play is an effective way to encourage children's cognitive growth, because through this fun activity, children can explore ideas, hone their imagination, and learn to solve various challenges. Play also supports memory, focus, and social skills such as cooperation, sharing and conflict resolution. Thus, play-based approaches are essential in supporting the holistic development of early childhood. This study aims to explore play strategies that can effectively stimulate children's cognitive development, as well as provide applicative guidance for parents and educators to optimize these methods. It is hoped that the findings from this research can be a source of insight for creating play activities that are not only fun but also full of educational value, in order to support the maximum learning experience for children.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the extent to which the use of picture media in learning can improve early childhood language skills compared to learning without picture media, and to analyze its effect on improving language skills. This study employed a quantitative approach with a One-Group Pretest-Posttest type Pre-Experimental design. The research subjects were all group A students at PAUD Sabilul Huda, totaling 17 children, with a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through structured observation, then analyzed using descriptive statistics and a t-test for comparison. The results showed that before the application of image media, the average language ability of children was 75.71, categorized as Developing As Expected (BSH). After the application of picture media, the average increased to 85.06 with the category of Developing Very Well (BSB). Thus, the use of image media is proven to have a positive influence on stimulating the language skills of early childhood.

Abstract

Learning mathematics in Early Childhood Education (ECE) plays an important role in building the foundation of logical and systematic thinking from an early age. The introduction of mathematical concepts such as number, value of money, measurement, and counting operations can be done in a fun way through activities that are contextual and close to children's lives, one of which is through market day activities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of market day as a contextual learning math strategy in ECE, with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through open-ended interviews with teachers, direct observation during the activities, and documentation in the form of photos and field notes. The results showed that market day had a positive impact on improving the understanding of basic math concepts in a contextual way. Children are actively involved in a simple buying and selling process that allows them to learn to count, recognize the value of money, and understand the concepts of more and less and addition in a real way. In addition, this activity also supports children's social-emotional development through interaction, cooperation, and communication. This study found novelty in the integration of numeracy and social skills in one authentic activity that is relevant to the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach in early childhood education.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the relationship between cognitive development and fine motor development in children aged 5–6 years, utilizing loose parts media. The study used a correlational quantitative approach with 10 children as subjects. Data were collected using a validated Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using Spearman's correlation test with the help of SPSS version 25. The results showed that most of the children's cognitive development fell into the "Developing as Expected" category (80%), followed by "Developing Very Well" (10%) and "Beginning to Develop" (10%). The children's fine motor development showed good results, with 60% of children in the Developing as Expected category and 40% in the Developing Very Well category. However, the correlation test results showed a significance value of 0.596 (>0.05) with a correlation coefficient of 0.191, indicating no significant relationship between cognitive and fine motor development. Thus, the use of loose parts media has not been statistically proven to show a correlation between these two aspects of development.
