Abstract

As a new school, KB & TK Alam Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari often finds it difficult to
compete with established schools for new students because, as a private school, the
sustainability of KB & TK Alam Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari is also strongly influenced
by the number of newly recruited students. As a natural school, KB & TK Alam
Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari must stand out from other schools, especially Playgroups,
and have advantages compared to public schools. It is clear from the results of discussions
with the principal of KB & TK Alam Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari that schools have a
number of benefits. One of the unique benefits produced by KB & TK Alam
Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari is a game-based school by giving priority to environmental
recognition. Purpose of PkM_P2AD: Activities Conducted to socialize and train swimming
for early childhood related to water games, water safety, water movement skills, and basic
swimming techniques. The approach used in this activity is based on the results of
discussions by the proposer and partners to agree that one of them is introducing water
sports to improve motor skills in early childhood. In addition, the researcher came to the
conclusion that the main problem agreed to be resolved during the implementation of the
PkM program was to provide education and training, along with practice, for partners to
design basic swimming games, swimming techniques for early childhood. By practicing
directly in the field, partners can more easily pay attention to the level of attractiveness,
effectiveness, and efficiency associated with the introduction of the sport of swimming
created or modified by the Community Service team.
