This research aims to examine how classroom action research through block play activities can enhance children's skills. Using a mixed-method approach, the research data were collected from students and teachers at the PAUD Al-Quran Assu'ada Karawang. Children's skills in block play are considered crucial in developing their motor, cognitive, social, and emotional abilities. From an Islamic perspective, children are viewed as a trust with the potential to become agents of change in the future. Therefore, providing optimal education and guidance for children is urgent, both by parents and education practitioners. Similarly, according to Article 1, paragraph 14 of Law No. 20 of 2003, children are obligated to receive physical and spiritual guidance. Internalizing religious values and character formation can be achieved through classroom action activities such as play. Data collection techniques used questionnaires, observations, and interviews, and data analysis followed the Miles and Huberman procedures, including data display, data reduction, drawing conclusions. The research findings showed several significant discoveries: 1) the use of cuisenaire blocks can enhance counting abilities in Group A children at PAUD Al-Quran Assu'ada Karawang. The average improvement from pre-action to cycle I was 26.09%, and the average improvement from cycle I to cycle II was 33.15%. 2) Block play activities were found to contribute to enhancing various aspects of children's development, such as fostering interest and motivation in learning, building creativity and imagination, and improving cognitive skills .
