Drinks made from natural ingredients, especially those from family plants, have health benefits for improving the immune system in the body. Processing of family medicinal plants (TOGA) has different benefits such as turmeric, ginger, galangal, lemongrass, lime and honey. When combined, herbal plants provide more comprehensive health benefits compared to consuming one type of herbal alone. It is hoped that the combination can provide healing benefits for various diseases by processing it into herbal drinks such as infused water. Infusion is a liquid preparation made by extracting vegetable simplicia such as ginger, turmeric, galangal, lemongrass, honey and lime with water at a temperature of 90˚C for 15 minutes while stirring occasionally. Socialization regarding the use of infused water needs to be carried out among the public, such as teenagers at high school level. With the existence of the KKN program "Save the Country through Education" at Abdurrab University in 2024, it is necessary to socialize the manufacture of infused water to students at the Pekanbaru Taruna Vocational School on Jalan Rajawali Sakti Keluran Delima, Tuah Madani District, Pekanbaru City, Riau. This outreach is very important and must be carried out because of the many benefits of a combination of herbal plants for a naturally healthy young generation. The aim of this socialization activity is to find out the benefits of consuming infusion water for body health to increase body endurance.

This research aims to enhance the fine motor skills of children aged 5-6 years through shape drawing activities at PAUD Nurul Ikhwan, Desa Mondang, Kab. Padang Lawas. Fine motor skills, which involve the coordination of small muscle movements, are crucial for activities such as writing and manipulating objects.

In the initial observation (pratindakan), 11 out of 13 children were identified as having underdeveloped fine motor skills. The first cycle involved introducing drawing activities, but progress was limited. By the second cycle, improvements were noted, with 78% of children achieving satisfactory levels of fine motor development.The findings suggest that regular, engaging drawing activities can significantly enhance fine motor skills in young children. This research underscores the importance of incorporating creative activities like drawing in early childhood education to foster optimal motor development.

This study aims to elaborate on the pattern of additional food as a risk factor for stunting in toddlers at the Pasar Prabumulih Health Center in 2023. Stunting is a condition where a child's height is shorter than the height of other children of the same age. Factors that can influence stunting include unhealthy eating patterns, low birth weight (LBW), lack of breastfeeding, due to infectious diseases during infancy, and failure to achieve perfect growth improvement in the following period. This study uses a case-control study approach with an analytical observational research design. Cases are toddlers diagnosed with stunting and controls are toddlers diagnosed as normal. The data collection technique uses primary data obtained directly from the research site by means of observation and interviews using questionnaires. Data were analyzed using binary logistic regression tests. The results of the analysis showed that there was no relationship between exclusive breastfeeding, parental education level, parental knowledge, and history of infectious diseases with stunting, but additional food patterns were related to stunting. The final multivariate model showed that only additional food patterns affected stunting.
