Abstract
Introduction : School age children are children aged 6-12 years. The stages of development of school-age children are a very important time for the continuity of children's development, because school age is a period where children gain knowledge and experience that can bring them into adolescence. The role of parents as people closest to children also affects the process of child development, one of which is in providing stimulation to children in order to achieve optimal growth and development. One of the interventions carried out is to provide health education to increase stimulation in children. Objective : This study aims to describe early detection and stimulation of development in school-age children. Method : The method used in this research is a case study, with a sampling method that is purposive sampling. The sample used was a 9-year-old school-age child who experienced a lack of developmental stimulation in children. The research data was taken using participatory observation methods, unstructured interviews and documentation. Result : The results showed that the provision of health education can increase developmental stimulation in children. The results of the end of the early detection questionnaire show that 100% of the achievement of developmental tasks is fulfilled. Conclusion : The provision of health education is useful for increasing developmental stimulation in children, so that they can achieve optimal growth and development.
