Abstract

This study aims to determine (1) the ability to use melodic and rhythmic musical instruments partially affects the critical creative thinking abilities of early childhood; and the ability to use melodic and rhythmic musical instruments simultaneously influences the critical creative thinking abilities of early childhood. The research method uses a true experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. The study population was Kindergarten/PAUD students in Tanjung Morawa and the samples used in this study were Tanjung Morawa State Kindergarten and Al Mirah Tanjung Morawa Kindergarten. The data analysis technique used in this study uses multiple linear regression analysis.The results of the study show that (1) there is a partial effect of the ability to use melodic and rhythmic musical instruments on the critical creative thinking abilities of early childhood; (2) there is an effect of the ability to use melodic and rhythmic musical instruments simultaneously on the critical creative thinking skills of early childhood. It is hoped that this research can become a reference in learning plans that use melodic and rhythmic musical instruments with the STEAM learning model for PAUD.
