Abstract

Language is one of the most important developments for children. Language development depends on the maturation of cortical cells, environmental support, and environmental education. Considering that in childhood is a fundamental time to provide stimulation, so language needs to be taught from an early age. Language can be offered in a variety of methods, one of them is through storytelling using flannel book media. This study aims to improve language development of children, especially the ability to tell the story of children aged 5-6 years using flannel book media. This research uses quasi-experiment method, with pretest-posttest control group design. kindergarten Data were analyzed using normality test, homogeneity test, paired test, and independent test, with significance level of 0,05. There is a difference in the increase in children's storytelling ability in the final results between the post-treatment control group that did not use flannel book media with the experimental group's treatment post that used flannel book media. The sig (2-tailed) value of the storytelling ability is 0,000 children getting a sig (2-tailed) value of 0,000. This shows that there are significant differences in the ability to tell stories for children, because the significance value obtained is smaller (<0.05).The results show that flannel book media can improve the ability of storytelling in children aged 5-6 years. The children of group B have been able to retell the story using flannel book media.
