Many cases of childhood sexual abuse occurred because children do not understand what sexual abuse is. Furthermore, children do not realize that they are a vulnerable group to become victims of childhood sexual abuse. On the other hand, there are still many parents who are not skilled enough to provide proper sex education to their children, and even consider it a taboo. For this reason, the researcher tried to make a method of learning sex education to make a method of learning sex education to children through puzzle games. Providing knowledge and skills to children through play methods is a very appropriate way for children about self-protection in sex education.

The experiment was carried out into two meeting sessions facilitated by the facilitator.

The Effect of “Si Andi” Flashcard Games on Improving Personal Safety Skills

“…Throughout the implementation of the "SI ANDI" flashcard games program, images and questions are presented as engagingly as possible, with clear and easily understandable instructions for the children. The usage of pictures in the form of cards can help subjects recall the topic (Agustina et al, 2022). This is consistent with previous literature that children find it easier to remember the sequence of skills when presented with visual media (Kumalasari & Kurniawati, 2018).…”

“…Participants significantly improved their ability to recognize sexual violence, respond to potentially harmful situations, and report unsafe touches (Sarno & Wurtele, 1997;Umar et al, 2018Umar et al, , 2018. Children with a profound understanding of personal safety skills are believed to have the ability to recognize potentially sexually violent situations and can differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate touches (Agustina et al, 2022;Boyle & Lutzker, 2005;Sarno & Wurtele, 1997;Wurtele, 2008).…”

“…The vulnerability of children to sexual violence is attributed to their dependency on adults for assistance, making them highly susceptible (Humaira B et al, 2015;Noviana, 2015;Probosiwi & Bahransyaf, 2015). Cases of sexual violence can also occur due to children's unawareness of adult behavior involving touching their private parts, as well as their lack of understanding of how to respond in such unsafe sexual situations (Agustina et al, 2022;Akbar & Mudzdaliffah, 2012). Therefore, children need to be provided with appropriate explanations through sexual education (Sulistiani, 2016;Tampubolon et al, 2019).…”

“…Providing sexual education in the form of personal safety skills to children can be adapted to their developmental stages (Noviana, 2015). Children aged 2 to 7 are in the preoperational stage (Santrock, 2007), characterized by unorganized thinking activities (Agustina et al, 2022). Children at this stage tend to perceive the world from their perspective.…”

“…Learning through play, known as educational games, can encourage them to have direct experiences and conduct experiments to discover certain principles (Papalia & Feldman, 2008;Widyati, 2014). Educational games can increase visual appeal, allowing children to concentrate better and listen to the material (Agustina et al, 2022;Rahmawati, 2014).…”
