Early recognition of patterns is a fundamental cognitive skill that supports later academic learning, particularly in mathematics and literacy. Therefore, the objective of this research is to determine the effectiveness of loose parts media in fostering the development of pattern recognition skills among young children. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, gathering data through interviews with teachers and documentation of classroom activities. The results indicate that the use of loose parts media, which involves natural or everyday objects that children can manipulate, significantly enhances their ability to recognize and create patterns. The children engaged more deeply with the learning material, demonstrated improved focus, and exhibited a higher level of creativity in their responses. The study concludes that incorporating loose parts media into early childhood education provides a more interactive and effective method for addressing challenges related to pattern recognition. It also suggests that such media can make learning more enjoyable and meaningful, thereby fostering a positive attitude towards learning in young children. This research offers valuable insights for educators, emphasizing the importance of adopting innovative and child-centered teaching strategies to enhance cognitive development in early learners.</p> 2024-07-31T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Muh Asriadi AM, Syahrini https://smartpaud.uho.ac.id/index.php/journal/article/view/173 The Effect of Brain Gym on Psychomotor Development in Preschool Children 2024-08-23T08:58:08+00:00 Enjela Lala Safrudin liadianayuningrum@almaata.ac.id Lia Dian Ayuningrum liadianayuningrum@almaata.ac.id Indah Wijayanti liadianayuningrum@almaata.ac.id <p>The development of children who are stimulated by their parents regularly and purposefully will develop faster than children who are not stimulated.
