Primary education is crucial for child development, especially at the elementary school level. Children begin to acquire various basic knowledge that will shape their cognitive, social, and emotional abilities. However, reality shows that schools can also become sites of aggressive behavior in the form of bullying. According to the Ministry of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection (2023), cases of bullying in elementary schools have shown an increasing trend over the past five years. The purpose of this activity is to broaden students' understanding of bullying and its impacts, foster empathy and mutual respect, and strengthen the roles of teachers and parents in creating a safe and inclusive school environment. Findings indicate the presence of students who still lack understanding regarding types of bullying, with a high category showing that some individuals remain frequent targets of bullying. This may be caused by factors such as physical differences, social status, family background, or weak social support from peers. This condition indicates that schools still need to implement preventive and intervention approaches to protect students who are vulnerable to bullying.

Bullying is a social problem that still frequently occurs in elementary school settings and may negatively affect children’s psychological development. Improving knowledge from an early age is one of the preventive efforts to reduce bullying behavior. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the educational snakes and ladders game as a learning medium in improving students’ knowledge about bullying at SD Negeri 3 Wonorejo, Karanganyar. This study employed a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The subjects were 23 fourth- and fifth-grade students. The instrument was a questionnaire assessing knowledge of bullying. The results showed an increase in the students’ average knowledge scores after the intervention using the Snakes and Ladders game. This medium was proven to deliver educational messages in an interesting, enjoyable, and effective way, while also encouraging positive interaction among students during the learning process. The educational snakes and ladders game can therefore be used as an alternative educational medium for bullying prevention in elementary schools.
