Abstract

The age period of 4 - 5 years is the first basis for the development of physical (motor), cognitive, language, social, emotional and cognitive abilities. According to WHO, it is estimated that 5-10% of children experience delays in thinking, with an estimated 1-3% especially for children under 5 years. In Indonesia there is a general developmental delay which includes motor, language, social, emotional and cognitive development. This research was conducted to see the relationship between maternal knowledge and gross motor development in preschool children at TKIT Al Hikmah. The research design used is analytical research with a cross sectional approach. This research was carried out at TKIT Al Hikmah in September 2023. The population in this study was all mothers of preschool age children at TKIT Al Hikmah totaling 43 people. Samples taken from the total population. From the results of the chi square test with a confidence level of 95% (α = 0.05), the calculation results show that the p value (0.049) < α (0.05) means that ha is accepted and ho is rejected. From these results it can be concluded that there is a relationship between knowledge and gross motor development in preschool children. It is hoped that respondents will be willing to participate in increasing knowledge and paying attention to the motoric development of preschool-aged children.
