Membangun Kebiasaan Menabung Sejak Dini Melalui Edukasi Gemar Menabung pada Anak-Anak SD Negeri 57 Lanca Fostering Early Saving Habits Through Financial Literacy Education at SD Negeri 57 Lanca
Main Article Content
Abstract
The community service program through the Regular Real Work Lecture (KKN-R) aims to instill the habit of saving from an early age in the children of SD Negeri 57 Lanca through an educational program themed "Building a Habit of Saving from an Early Age Through Education to Love Saving in Children". Saving is an essential competency that should be introduced to children at an early age to foster a wise and responsible financial character in the future. This program is designed with a fun, interactive educational approach through various methods, including interactive lectures with PPT materials, showing educational videos on loving saving, making piggy banks from used materials, and saving simulations, as well as giving rewards in the form of stickers. The program was implemented during 1 meeting attended by all students at SD Negeri 57 Lanca, with a participation rate reaching 100%. Principal and teacher support, along with positive responses, also strengthened the program's success. However, there are challenges, including limited implementation time and the need for ongoing parental guidance to help children save in piggy banks so the habit of saving remains consistent. Thus, collaboration between schools and families is key to fostering positive financial habits from an early age. This program is expected to become an effective and sustainable model for promoting savings education in other early childhood education institutions.
