PENGARUH PENGGUNAAN MEDIA PLAYDOUGH TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN MOTORIK HALUS DAN KREATIVITAS ANAK KELOMPOK B DI TK KHADIJAH 8 KABUPATEN BANYUWANGI

Abstract
 In daily practice at Kindergarten (TK) schools there are problems and the development of children's fine motor skills, children's fine motor skills appear not to be optimal, this is due to the lack of stimulation given to children, lack of balance in the child's body in every movement. The method in the fine motor learning process that is used is not optimal. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of using playdough media on fine motor skills and creativity in group B TK Khadijah 8 Banyuwangi Kindergarten. Fine motor development is related to the development of the ability to use fingers to use various activities such as sticking, pinching, cutting, painting and others. The research method used is the Pre Experimental Design method with the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design research design. The data used to obtain the data are as follows: observation, interviews, documentation. The statistics used are independent t-test and sample t-test. Research results. Playdough improves children's fine motor skills and creativity. Playdough media play activities can hone children's fine motor skills because they use their hands and fingers as well as eye coordination. Then the selected tool is easier to obtain. In conclusion, the use of playdough media has an effect on fine motor skills and creativity of group B children in Khadijah 8 Kindergarten, Banyuwangi Regency.

MENINGKATKAN MOTORIK HALUS ANAK MELALUI KEGIATAN MENJAHIT POLA PADA KELOMPOK A DI TKIT BINA PRESTASI

The progress of fine motor skills of children aged 4-5 years at TKIT Bina Prestasi has not resulted in the expected development of most in one class for the flexibility of children's fingers. Through sewing patterns of varying complexity and simplicity, it is possible for researchers to use them on the fine motor skills being learned. Because the lack of stimulating children's balance between fine motor skills such as tracing and various other activities such as tracing, drawing, cutting and pasting as well as hand-eye coordination in art learning activities makes their fingers flexible. So that these children's fine motor skills will prepare them better for independent tasks. This research was conducted in group A, where the task of the researcher worked according to the conditions faced by the class. This is shown by the fact that the majority of 5 out of 8 children have a stiff tendency when holding skills or objects with both hands. The methods used and research procedures include planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting. Data collection was carried out through observation and documentation, and percentage techniques were used to process the data. There are five meetings in each of the two research cycles. Through sewing activities, this study aims to improve children's fine motor skills. The results of the research cycle I while far from the standard of sewing mastery that has been determined then need to be adjusted. On the criteria for sewing mastery, children's fine motor skills increased in cycle II. Based on research, it shows that activities such as sewing patterns can support children in developing their fine motor skills

Efektivitas Terapi Bermain Kolase Dan Plastisin Terhadap Perkembangan Motorik Halus Anak 4-5 Tahun Di Tk Zainul Hasan

Fine motor development is a movement that only involves small muscles in the body, such as skills in using fingers and wrist movements. Delays in fine motor development are caused by the lack of opportunities for children to play, the stimulation that children receive is good by parents. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of playing collage and plasticine therapy on fine motor development in children 4-5 years old at Zainul Hasan Genggong Kindergarten, ProbolinggoThis type of research is pre-experimental with a two group pretest-posttest research design. The population was 46 respondents who met the inclusion requirements of the study were selected using a total sampling technique. Children's fine motor development was measured using an observation sheet, and information was gathered using editing, coding, scoring, and tabulating procedures. In both groups, the data were evaluated using the Wilcoxon test hypothesis.The results showed that the value of ρ Value α = 0.000 in the collage playing group and the value of ρ Value α = 0000 in the plasticine playing group. The significant level of ρ Value < α 0.05, it is stated that both therapies are effective in developing children's fine motor development. However, judging by the results of the observation, the post-test value of playing plasticine therapy was more with the results of the BSB category being 20 children. Due to the age characteristics in group 2, there were more 4 years of age at that age, children's fine motor development was more rapid.Collage and plasticine games are a series of therapies to develop fine motor development in children. For further researchers, it is recommended to add variety of images in collage play therapy, to approach children more when given play therapy.

ART AND CRAFT ACTIVITIES FOR EARLY CHILDREN TO IMPROVE FINE MOTOR ABILITY

Precision and good coordination are needed to move small muscles with fine motor abilities. Fine motor abilities are used in actions including cutting, tearing, folding, pasting, and putting together small things. Finger muscles, or fine motor abilities, are needed for this task. Early skill development is necessary to prepare children for their eventual entry into the world of formal education. Children aged 0 to 6 are considered to be in the early childhood period. The development that must be accomplished by the time a child turns 3 years old is already complex. Children need appropriate stimulation starting at that age to promote growth and physical development so that their abilities match the phases of age development. Through arts and crafts, children's fine motor skills can be improved. Activities involving art and crafts can be used to express oneself or as a component of aesthetics and creative expression. Since art and craft activities are tied to the creation of art, which requires strong finger muscles as well as good eye-hand coordination, they are beneficial for promoting the growth of fine motor skills in children.

IMPLEMENTASI KEGIATAN MENEMPEL UNTUK MENINGKATKAN MOTORIK HALUS SISWA DI SEKOLAH DASAR
