Abstract

Model of Children Readiness in Facing Volcanic Disasters aims to be a reference for learning activities about disaster response and disaster awareness early on in the Early Childhood Education (ECE) which is expected to help children reduce the impact of volcanic disasters and preparedness in facing disasters that can come at any time without warning. The tests provided were simulations of ways to save themselves when a mountain erupted, such as how to wear a mask, recognize signs of a volcano eruption, recognize signs of evacuation, gathering points and activities carried out at the gathering point led by teachers waiting for help to arrive. Learning activities are carried out using the story telling method, the singing method, and the simulation method. From the results and discussion after the child is given a simulation and measured the attitude of the child facing a volcano disaster, it can be said that the child has a spiritual attitude, social attitude, knowledge, and excellent skills where the child is no longer afraid, confused, or anxious when the volcano is experiencing an eruption. Each child understands what to do when a volcano erupts and where to go when an earthquake occurs. This shows that the model of children readiness in facing volcanic disasters contribute significantly to children’s readiness in disaster mitigation.
