This research investigates how participation in structured movement education impacts the game skills of children aged 5-6 years. The study utilized a descriptive survey model, engaging 144 parents whose children were part of movement education programs. Using the Game Skills Scale (GSS) for data collection, findings indicate that children involved in movement activities show high levels of game skills, independent of gender, age, or the duration of their participation.
Key Findings:
- High Game Skills: Children participating in movement education exhibited notably strong game skills, affirming the value of physical activities in enhancing motor and cognitive abilities.
- No Significant Differences: The analysis showed no substantial differences in game skills based on gender or age, suggesting that movement education benefits are widely applicable across demographics.
- Duration Impact: Interestingly, the length of time children participated in movement programs did not significantly affect their game skills, indicating that benefits can be gained relatively quickly.
Implications for Early Education: Structured movement education not only supports physical development but also boosts cognitive and social skills essential for young learners. Educators and policymakers should prioritize integrating these programs into early childhood curricula to foster comprehensive development and establish lifelong healthy habits.
This study underscores the multifaceted advantages of early movement education and encourages further research to maximize its impact.
