Kinesthetic intelligence among early childhood students at TK Theobroma PTPN Banjarsari, Bangsalsari Subdistrict, Jember Regency. The bakiak game, which involves teamwork, balance, and body coordination, was selected as a medium to develop children’s gross motor skills. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that the bakiak game improved gross motor skills, spatial awareness, and peer cooperation. Physical activity in this game also had a positive impact on body balance and coordination. Overall, the bakiak game proved effective in stimulating the development of kinesthetic intelligence in children at TK Theobroma Banjarsari. These results suggest that traditional games can serve as enjoyable and beneficial alternatives for learning activities in early childhood education.
