Through systematic play activities and adapted to the age group of growth and development, the creative potential of children will develop optimally. But in reality there are still many lessons that are still glued to magazines or LKA books, so that learning seems less interesting and boring. The loose parts-based learning method is one method that is considered capable of answering these problems. Loose parts based learning method is a learning method that uses media in the form of materials around us that can be separated and arranged into one, aligned, easy to combine with other materials and easy to carry and move. This research is a qualitative research with descriptive-qualitative research type. The research subjects were PAUD teachers using data analysis with an interactive model from Miles and Huberman, namely, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawings/verifications. The results of the loose part method show that the media can increase creativity in early childhood. When children are given the freedom to directly explore the environment, they can enrich creative ideas, imagination ideas, and raise curiosity in children. So that learning that was initially monotonous and boring will become more fun.
