ABSTRACT

COVID-19 pandemic has occurred in various countries and has resulted in a world health crisis. The increasingly widespread pandemic conditions not only have an impact on the health status of the elderly group, but also on children who have the potential to experience serious impacts due to various secondary impacts that arise both in the short and long term on the health, welfare, development, and future of children. This activity is in collaboration with partners who have a common goal in preventing child growth and development during the COVID-19 pandemic. 1. The purpose of this activity is to increase parents' understanding of the importance of monitoring children's growth and development and choosing healthy snacks during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as increasing parental awareness and sensitivity in making efforts to ensure optimal child growth and development during the Covid-19 pandemic. The activity was carried out with socialization and education about the importance of healthy snacks for kindergarten students using the zoom application. The socialization and education began with the opening and greeting stages, presentation of material, question and answer discussion, door prizes, and closing. The result of this activity is an increase in participants' knowledge about optimizing children's growth and development and providing education about choosing healthy snacks to support children's growth and development, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, activities can be expanded with a bigger target so that everyone can pay close attention to children's growth and development, especially during the pandemic.
