Cognitive and Motor Development in Early Childhood in Sambopinggir Village, Karangbinangun District, Through Interactive Busy Book Media

Abstract

Satuan PAUD Sejenis (SPS) is a non-formal education program designed for early childhood as preparatory assistance before children enter primary education. Sambopinggir Village in Lamongan is one of the villages that organizes SPS activities on a weekly basis. The lack of instructional media often creates challenges for the teaching facilitators of the SPS program in Sambopinggir Village in delivering lessons effectively. Based on this situation, the 2024 KKN (Community Service Program) students of Darul ‘Ulum Islamic University of Lamongan initiated the development of a Busy Book as an alternative interactive learning medium to support the teaching and learning process in the SPS program of Sambopinggir Village. The Busy Book is expected to assist SPS facilitators in improving students’ focus, cognitive development, and motor skills.
