Keywords:
Ankle, ADHD Child, Focus, Physical ActivityAbstract
This study aims to describe the implementation of traditional engklek games in increasing physical activity and focus of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) at RA Al-Ikhlas Konggo, Deli Serdang Regency. The engklek game was chosen because this game contains elements of gross motor movements, body coordination, and simple rules that can train children to listen to the instructions given. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach, by analyzing the results of the implementation of activities that have been carried out in the school environment. Data were obtained through the results of previous observations and literature studies from relevant research. The results of the study showed that engklek games contributed positively to the increase of focus and physical activity of ADHD children. Children are better able to follow the rules, wait for their turn and show better coordination of movements during play. This activity also stimulates children's social development through interaction with peers. Thus, traditional engklek games can be used as an alternative to fun learning activities for ADHD children, especially in increasing focus and physical activity in early childhood.
