Abstract

Blood group is not only as a complement of identity card, but also is required in emergency, such as in accident where people need blood transfusion. Additionally, blood group is important to know due to the fact that there are some genetic disorders caused by blood type. Golden age of a kid is under two years old. However, stunting at a kid under five years old can cause many growth disorders, including cognitive and motor growth. Therefore, nutrition intake in food is important to be concerned in order to optimize the kid’s growth. Baitul Izzah was one of Integrated Islamic (IT) kindergartens in Bengkulu City. This school had three A Classes, one Pre-School Class (PAUD), and nine B Classes in which each of them consisted of twenty five pupils and two teachers. The objective of this dedication is to know the pupils’ nutritional status at the school so that parents can know their kid’s growth. Besides, this dedication aims to give counseling about how to wash hands correctly in which we know that washing hands before eating or after doing activities will decrease the risk of communicable diseases like wormy disease and influenza. This activity was accomplished on August 16, 2014. It was followed by two classes at Kindergarten B which consisted of 46 pupils and accompanied by the class teacher. Based on IMT (Body Mass Index), it was found that there were 18 pupils with normal nutritional status, 19 pupils were obesity, 2 pupils were underweight and 7 pupils were overweight. From the blood group checkup, it was found that all of the pupils had rhesus + with various blood groups. Furthermore, the counseling about how to wash hands correctly and good foods was accomplished. From the counseling, it was found that the pupils of the kindergarten were very enthusiastic. Following the counseling, direct practice about washing hands correctly was also conducted as well as giving nutritional food like mung bean porridge and milk, and souvenirs to the school at the end.
