Abstract

The poor introduction of the concept of numbers in early childhood caused the number sense teaching to use too many worksheets. This study aims to introduce the effectiveness of numeric toys media in introducing number sense to improve the understanding of the concept of numbers in early childhood as a basis for learning mathematics in the next school level. The methods used follow the Barg and Gall model with the research subject of 36 children aged 5-6 years in Al Ibrah kindergarten, Gresik, Indonesia. The results showed a better understanding of the posttest after being given a learning with numeric toys media in the form of motion games and multisensory cards. This research provided an efficient idea ofhow to introduce number sense in kindergarten in a multisensory way and further research on the implications of this media on the mathematics of children in elementary school is still required.
