ABSTRACT Background: The toddler's growth and development is influenced by genetic factors and environmental Every baby needs maximum stimulation to take advantage of this phase to optimize the child's growth and development. The current phenomenon is that parents do not understand how to carry out appropriate stimulation and have limited knowledge about the development of toddlers. So there's a need for a media that can help parents learn how to do the right stimulation so that the toddler can go through the developmental stages of his or her age. The aim of this study is to find out the impact of video stimulation of growing and development toddler. Metods: This research method used Quasi Experimental Design. The subjects of this study were parents of children aged 6-24 months. The total number of respondents for both groups was 54, with the number of respondents for each group being 27. The inclusion criteria in this study were parents of children aged 6-24 months who at the time of the study were not suffering from illness. Respondents will be assessed for their child's development with KPSP and then receive health education related to stimulating the child's development with leaflets . , and with video media . , after 2 weeks the child's development will be reassessed using KPSP. Data was analysed using the Mann-Whitney test. Results: The analysis obtained p=0. >0. showed no effect of video stimulation on the growth of toddler aged 6-24 months. Video media did not give a more significant influence when compared to leaflet media on the control group. Conclusion: Videos and leaflets for stimulating growth and development are both effective as tools for stimulating the development of toddlers aged 6-24 months. The results of stimulation using videos and leaflets both work well in the development of toddlers, so there is no significant difference from the use of these two tools.

Regular early stimulation at every opportunity needs to be given to toddlers, because deviations in toddler's growth and development can occur due to lack of Please note, a toddler's age of 0 to 3 years is a golden age for a toodler's growth and development. At that age, toddler who are like white paper will absorb all the information and whatever they see or hear so that they will fill the clean white paper like pen scratches.

Methods. The method used in this research is Quasi Experimental Design. The subjects of this study were parents who had toddler aged 6-24 months divided into two groups . ontrol and experimen. Respondents receive health education related to stimulating toddler development through lecture methods . , and through video media . We will then measure the development of the toddler using the KPSP to determine the extent to which the effectiveness of using the media. The development stimulation video created is for toddler aged 6-24 months. The total of respondents 54 parents who have a toddler aged 6- 24 months. Respondents were divided into 2 groups, namely 27 control group . ducation with media leaflet lecture. and 27 intervention group . ducation with media The research process passes through three stages of toddler development measurement using age-appropriate KPSP, health education with leaflet or video media, and 2 weeks later a re-measurement is carried out using the same KSPP. The results of the normality test on the data that had been collected showed that not all data were normally distributed so tests were carried out using the Wilcoxon test in each intervention group and control group, then continued using the Mann Whitney test to test the difference between pretest and posttest values between the intervention group and control group.
