Abstract

The form of institutionalization of orphanages cannot be separated from risks to children's development. It is undeniable that orphanage institutions have certainly tried their best to help the development of their foster children. But there is a possibility that there is an inability of the orphanage to become an environment that can meet the needs and support for children to develop optimally. The ratio of the number of caregivers to children cared for in orphanages which is not ideal causes a lack of attention and support which can hamper children's development. This is in accordance with what is experienced by teenagers at the Rumah Shalom Orphanage Foundation. Based on the results of the interviews we conducted before carrying out this activity, some of the problems that are often experienced by adolescents in orphanages are procrastination, the use of harsh words, and a lack of knowledge about the outside world. Therefore, we want to share our knowledge with the orphanage children so they can better themselves and prepare themselves when they set foot outside the orphanage. To minimize crowds of children and create a productive atmosphere, PKM activities are carried out in a closed room but large enough to accommodate children. This PKM activity was carried out quite casually or you could say it was not so formal. Overall observation results from the initial activity to the final activity, the orphanages do not like activities that are too monotonous or have too much material. They really like physical activities such as production and packaging activities. Therefore, in the how to introduce yourself and let's talk activities, we had time to insert ice breaking in the form of games to raise the enthusiasm of the youth.
