Abstract

This study investigates the most fundamental topic in early childhood. Sometimes, teachers push children to learn reading, writing, and arithmetic. In fact, not every child has the readiness to accept the learning. Another problem that often occurs in kindergarten's learning activities is the tendency of teachers who only refer to standard curriculum prescribed by the government. Therefore, many teachers are lazy and do not have creativity to make fun and entertaining learning for children. Based on this problem, a proper, integrative, and beneficial solution to all parties is needed. The solution to solve that problem is through the application of learning with educational games to pay tribute to the multiple intelligences of children. This study was conducted in one of kindergarten at Bandung city, involving 40 children. The method used in this study is quasi-experiment. The children were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The results show educational games can help to develop early childhood multiple intelligences.
