This study used a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the data obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation involving 15 children from Class B as research subjects.

This study also recommends routine evaluations to measure the effectiveness of this approach. In conclusion, storytelling methods hold great potential in character education at the kindergarten level, and the findings of this research can serve as inspiration for character education in other schools.
