Students of Thematic Real Work Lecture (KKN-T) Group 7 of the Faculty of Economics (FE) of Djuanda University (UNIDA) carry out coloring activities and learn to count with the concept of play. The activity in the classroom felt different because students invited children to learn while playing at SDN 01 Banjarsari which was carried out in Banjarwangi Village, Ciawi District, Bogor Regency on Wednesday (02/08/2023). One of the themes of KKN-T is the theme of Education. Through this program, students focus on coloring activities with the aim of training fine motor intelligence through coloring activities, as a medium for children's expression, improving memory, and encouraging visual analysis. In addition to coloring activities, students also carry out activities to teach counting with the concept of play. This was conveyed by Nuratih Dewi Rahayu as the Head of Group 7 in a meeting with the 2nd grade teacher Mrs. Fitri at SDN 01 Banjarsari. "Learning while playing is more effective for children. We choose coloring activities with various characters so that children can choose what pictures they like and so that children do not feel bored and when coloring children can explore all colors and can make children have creativity. Coloring activities are the first thing they can do in training fine motor intelligence and can encourage visual analysis. In addition, counting activities packed with play can train children to be able to understand and catch questions easily." The activity was held at SDN 01 Banjarsari, Banjarwangi Village and the students were welcomed by the teachers and students. They were very enthusiastic about the activity. In this case, Mrs. Fitri as the homeroom teacher of grade 2 expressed her joy at the arrival of the students. "I thank you for carrying out activities with good benefits for children and for helping learning activities in terms of counting," she said.
