- Abstract
Preschool is a period to develop fine motor skills. Origami has benefits in training memory and fine motor skills, improving concentration and patience, and increasing intellectual capacity. This study determines the effect of origami games on fine motor development in preschool children at Putra Buana Kindergarten in Wanar village, Pucuk Subdistrict. It used a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest and posttest approach. In addition, the population was 47 preschool children aged 3–6 years at Putra Buana Kindergarten. The sample was 42 by simple random sampling. The instrument was the Denver II Developmental Screening Test. Furthermore, the researchers observed fine motor development before the intervention. After playing the origami game, we remeasured fine motor development. The data analysis used the Wilcoxon test with p = 0.05. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test resulted in Z = –3.606a and p = 0.000 (p < 0.05), so H1 was accepted. In conclusion, origami game is an intervention to improve fine motor development in preschoolers. So, it potentially minimizes the risk of fine motor delays in 3–6 years children.
