Abstract

Measurement skills form a fundamental aspect of early childhood mathematical development. However, observations at an Islamic Kindergarten (RA) in Padalarang revealed that instruction remained focused on general numeracy skills, utilizing teaching aids that lacked creativity and innovation. Consequently, the researcher sought to develop a Kahoot!-based learning medium—incorporating a play-based approach—to assess its feasibility and effectiveness. This development utilized the Research and Development (R&D) method based on the ADDIE model. The study involved children aged 5–6 years at the aforementioned institution. Validation was conducted by subject matter experts, media experts, and practitioners, while data collection relied on observation and interviews. Data were subsequently processed using SPSS, employing tests ranging from normality checks to N-Gain analysis. The results demonstrated that the Kahoot!-based learning medium—developed through the ADDIE stages—achieved feasibility ratings of 82.14% from media experts, 78.57% from subject matter experts, and 96.42% from practitioners, placing it in the "highly feasible" category. Effectiveness testing yielded an N-Gain score of 1.00, indicating high effectiveness; thus, the medium proved effective in enhancing measurement skills among early childhood learners.
