Enhancing Children's Creativity Through Lego Media at Gentaralia Early Childhood Education Center in Talang Kemang Village, Semidang Alas Maras District, Seluma Regency

Abstract

This study aims to enhance children's creativity through LEGO media at Gentaralia Early Childhood Education (PAUD) in Semidang Alas Maras District, Seluma Regency. This research is motivated by children's low creativity, which is evident in their lack of ability to express ideas, demonstrate a sense of beauty in their work, work independently, and engage in enthusiasm during learning activities. The method used is John Elliot's Classroom Action Research model, implemented in two cycles, including planning, action implementation, observation, and reflection. Data collection techniques used observation and documentation. The results showed that children's creativity increased from 67% in Cycle I, with the criteria of Developing According to Expectations, to 97.92% in Cycle II, with the criteria of Developing Very Well. Thus, LEGO media has proven effective in enhancing the creativity of early childhood at Gentaralia Early Childhood Education (PAUD) in Semidang Alas Maras District, Seluma Regency.
