Pemberdayaan Anak melalui Seni Daur Ulang dan Eksperimen Gunung Meletus di Desa Kumpulrejo

Abstract

Community Service Program (KKN) serves as a platform for university students to contribute to society through educational and empowerment activities. One of the programs conducted in Kumpulrejo Village involved recycled art activities and a volcano eruption experiment designed for children. This initiative aimed to enhance children's creativity, environmental awareness, and basic scientific understanding through engaging and interactive learning experiences. The program was implemented using a participatory approach that included explanations, demonstrations, hands-on practice, and direct assistance from KKN students. Through recycled art activities, children were encouraged to transform used materials into creative and useful products, fostering both imagination and environmental responsibility. Meanwhile, the volcano eruption experiment introduced simple scientific concepts in an enjoyable and accessible manner. The outcomes indicated that the children actively participated and showed great enthusiasm throughout the activities. Overall, the program provided meaningful learning experiences while supporting the development of creativity, environmental consciousness, and science literacy among children in Kumpulrejo Village.
