Science learning is important to early childhood so that they can understand the world and the environment around it through a variety of processes that are then known as scientific investigations. Science learning is able to create an engrossing learning atmosphere that is essentially close to the children and they have witnessed daily. Children are expected to be able to solve the problems faced by science learning. Science that covers the context of multisensory by involving the entire sensory tool allows the child to obtain intact information, so as to improve their cognitive development. Social development in early childhood also had to obtain a balanced portion. People need others for survival, early childhood should be directed to be able to form good social relations with people and the environment around them. So anti-social behaviour can be hit. A multisensory ecological-based science learning Model is expected to improve cognitive and social development in early childhood. Keywords: early childhood, multi-sensory-ecological-based science learning model LITERATURE REVIEWEarly childhood according to the view of the three philosophers in Santrock[3] based on an understanding of original sin, steadiness, and early kindness. Froebel[4] says
Early childhood is an active and energetic individual. Children love to do challenging motion activities. Because the movement activities that are routinely carried out by children will have a good impact on their growth and development.There are several factors that influence children's movement. The results showed that routine physical activities given to young children/ can stimulate the growth and development of the body including the brain, increasing the body's resistance to disease. However, children's movement and motor activities begin to decrease due to several things. For example, children spend more time playing gadgets. In addition, research shows that nearly 70% of three years old children in Europe attend day care services so that they stay more indoors and lead to high rates of obesity. Meanwhile, children who are obese are twice as likely to have bad self-confidence than children who are of normal weight. Meanwhile, the results of other studies show that children in coastal areas have better basic motor skills than other areas. It is proven from 8 sub-districts in the city of Padang, only 2 sub-districts in the coastal area show very good results. However, these results are not perfect due to other factors that have not been observed, one of which is motivation and self-confidence. With the existence of further analysis, it is hoped that it can improve the results of previous research and see how motivation and self-confidence of children in carrying out movement activities in Kindergarten in the city of Padang.
During the kindergarten and early years of elementary school, children need to have plenty of opportunities to engage in physical / gross motor. Early Chidhood spend a lot of time learning to read and count rather than learn through playing and exploring, exercising and using their imagination. This violates the principles of child development and good teaching and sacrifices children's health and their long-term prospects for success in schoolThis study aims to determine the development gross motor of early childhood in kindergarten Kuranji sub-district, Padang City. The type of research is descriptive quantitative with survey method. The research was conducted in July 2018 in Kuranji sub-district, Padang city. The sample of this research is all head of kindergarten located in Kuranji sub-district, Padang city. The results showed that the head of kindergarten in kuranji sub-district has developed motor activity of kindergarten children in Kuranji sub-district. Most Heads of Kindergarten have always planned the development motor activity of kindergarten children at least once a week. The methods and media used are also varied widely, but some heads are not many media to development gross motor early childhood. Suggestion of this research is research continued by using kindergarten teacher in Kuranji sub district as respondent.
