INTRODUCTION Learning in kindergarten is guided by the principle of learning while playing or playing while learning. Play is a demand and need for early childhood , so that learning activities are carried out with various kinds of games in a fun atmosphere and stimulate children to be actively involved.

The purpose of writing this article is to develop my knowledge on a website-based information system. With the creation of an academic information system in kindergarten, it is hoped that it will be able to channel information in schools, it can be in the form of academic assessments of children, child development, children's activities at school, or activities for parents at school.

Without any information, a system will not run smoothly and may eventually die. In other words ,
