The disciplined person can not be formed instantaneously, nor in the form of traffic discipline. Traffic education for early childhood is one way of preventing traffic accidents that can be planted early on. Safety education activities are part of community service conducted to students of kindergarten Alifa Kids 5. Community service is part of Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi. This activity aims to increase students' knowledge about safety in schools, especially regarding safety signs. Commander of the community is a method of implementation of this communit in the form of education followed by questions and answers and roleplay. This activity is done by cooperative method of role playing type where every student of student switch role become a role in this thing that is procedure of crossing. The result of this activity is student of kindergarten Alifa Kids 5 can play role in case crossing highway. The conclusion of this activity is the increase of students' knowledge about implementing traffic safety especially crossing the road. It is hoped that with increasing and implementing procedures to cross the right path can raise students' awareness for safe behaviors increase..

Engagement in early childhood has been linked with later achievement, but the relation between these variables and how they are measured in early childhood requires examination. We estimated the overall association between academic engagement and achievement in children prior to kindergarten entry. Our systematic literature search yielded 13,521 reports for structured eligibility screening; from this pool of studies, we identified 21 unique data sets, with 199 effect sizes for analysis. We coded eligible studies, extracted effect sizes, accounted for effect size dependency, and used random-effects models to synthesize findings. The overall correlation between academic engagement and achievement was r = .24 (range: −.08 to −.71), and moderator analyses did not significantly predict the relation between the two constructs. This study aligns with previous research on this topic and examines issues related to these measures, their constraints, and applications as they pertain to early childhood research.
