Developing a Movement-and-Song Video to Stimulate the Gross Motor Skills of Children Aged 4–5 Years

Background: Gross motor skills underpin young children’s daily activities, yet gross motor learning in many early childhood settings remains monotonous and lacks engaging media. Methods: Using the ADDIE research and development model at PAUD Asy-Syifa Bajing Kulon, Cilacap, a movement-and-song video was developed, validated by experts, and trialled with teachers and ten children aged 4–5 years. Results: The video (opening, warm-up, core activity, cool-down) was rated very feasible by the material (84.3%) and media experts (88.3%) and very practical by teachers (92.8%) and in children’s responses (95%). Novelty: The study offers a locally developed, theory-informed video that uses on-screen modelling as scaffolding and documents each ADDIE stage, so teachers can adapt it for routine gross motor learning. Conclusion: The video is a feasible and practical alternative medium; its effectiveness should be tested in controlled studies.
