Abstract
Masa kanak-kanak awal merupakan periode krusial bagi perkembangan holistik yang mencakup aspek fisik, kognitif, sosial-emosional, dan bahasa. Urgensi penelitian ini terletak pada pemahaman tentang bagaimana keempat aspek tersebut muncul dalam konteks pembelajaran nyata guna mengoptimalkan praktik pendidikan anak usia dini. Penelitian deskriptif kualitatif ini dilakukan di TK Madani Pabelan, Surakarta, dengan melibatkan lima anak berusia 4–6 tahun dan satu guru kelas. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi partisipatif, wawancara semi terstruktur, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa seluruh peserta memiliki perkembangan sesuai usia pada setiap aspek. Faktor utama yang memengaruhi perkembangan anak meliputi gizi, lingkungan rumah, serta kolaborasi guru dan orang tua. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa pendekatan integratif antara pendidik dan keluarga diperlukan untuk menjaga pertumbuhan anak usia dini yang seimbang.
