Cognitive ability is one of the aspects of development that is important to be developed in early childhood. One of the efforts that can be made to develop children's cognitive abilities is through the block center learning model. This study aims to describe the implementation of the block center learning model in developing the cognitive abilities of group B children in Aisyiyah 4 Pondok Jati Kindergarten. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis is carried out through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that block center learning provides opportunities for children to learn actively through play activities. Developed cognitive abilities include the ability to recognize shapes and sizes, understand the relationship between space and position of objects, solve problems, group objects, and communicate learning experiences through recalling activities. Thus, the beam-center learning model can support the development of early childhood cognitive abilities through meaningful learning experiences.
