This research is based on the importance of developing the creativity of social studies teachers in creating fun learning while at the same time accommodating the achievement of student competencies. This study seeks to examine and describe edutainment-based social studies learning innovations at the junior high school level in Bandung City, West Java, Indonesia. The method used in this research is the Classroom Action Research method by adopting the Kemmis and McTaggart model. The design of this model has several stages, namely planning, implementation, observation, and reflection, as improvements for the next cycle. The study results indicate that the application of edutainment can be developed through the game method. Games in learning will provide opportunities for students to manipulate, repeat, discover for themselves, explore, practice, and get countless concepts and understandings. This is where students can make decisions, choose, determine, express opinions, solve problems completely, cooperate with friends, and experience various feelings.

Several research cycles have been developed to produce a -based edutainment model design educational game following the characteristics of social studies learning without forgetting the development of students’ thinking skills.
