- Abstract
This research aims to review (1) the influence of water-playing exploratory game to the children’s science ability, (2) the influence of water-playing exploratory game to the children’s creativity. The researcher is choosing an exploratory game to develop children’s science and creativity between 5 to 6 years old in order to have an ability in solving a simple problem, understanding the concept of nature, generating ideas or new work product. The method of this research is quasi-experimental with experimental and control group design. The samples of this research are 125 students in Sukolilo Surabaya. In this research, observation and documentation are used for data collection technique. The result shows that the experimental group’s science and creativity is greater than the control one. The researcher recommends to every institution in kindergarten to develop the exploratory game by taking advantage of a natural environment that is water as the source of learning, because water-playing exploratory game is proven effective to develop children’s science and creativity.
