Early childhood is an active and energetic individual. Children love to do challenging motion activities. Because the movement activities that are routinely carried out by children will have a good impact on their growth and development. There are several factors that influence children’s movement. The results showed that routine physical activities given to young children/ can stimulate the growth and development of the body including the brain, increasing the body’s resistance to disease. However, children’s movement and motor activities begin to decrease due to several things. For example, children spend more time playing gadgets. In addition, research shows that nearly 70% of three years old children in Europe attend day care services so that they stay more indoors and lead to high rates of obesity. Meanwhile, children who are obese are twice as likely to have bad self-confidence than children who are of normal weight. Meanwhile, the results of other studies show that children in coastal areas have better basic motor skills than other areas. It is proven from 8 sub-districts in the city of Padang, only 2 sub-districts in the coastal area show very good results. However, these results are not perfect due to other factors that have not been observed, one of which is motivation and self-confidence. With the existence of further analysis, it is hoped that it can improve the results of previous research and see how motivation and self-confidence of children in carrying out movement activities in Kindergarten in the city of Padang.
