Study purpose. The aim of the study was to develop a manual and easy test instrument for basic movement skills in early childhood. Materials and methods. In this work, we use a research and development (R&D) method. The research procedures are: (1) the first stage is a preliminary study in the form of potential problems, data collection, and needs analysis, (2) the second stage is instrument development planning, and (3) the third stage is trial, expert evaluations, and product revisions, and (4) the fourth stage is model implementation. A total of 155 children aged 4-6 years participated in this study. Statistical analysis used is the product-moment correlation for the validity test and Cronbach alpha for the reliability test. Data were analyzed using the SPSS application. Results. The results of this study are 1) the creation of a basic movement skill test instrument that can measure three components, namely locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative. 2) Based on this validity test, from 15 research instruments of basic movement skills (Y) tested, 15 items were obtained with r-count > 0.133 and were declared valid to be used in capturing research data. 3) The results obtained were r-count = 0.676 and r table 0.133, so the value of r arithmetic > r table, then this instrument is declared reliable and can be used as a data collection tool. Conclusions. The development of basic motion test instruments produce instruments that can measure and evaluate the basic movement skills of children aged 4-6 years which include three components, namely, locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative. © Komaini, A., Kiram, Y., Rifki, M.S., Handayani, S.G., Ayubi, N., & Putra, R.Y., 2022.
