However, some children only have particular objects in their minds, such as mountains, trees, and houses, despite having many other objects around them that they can express in an image. Thus, this research focuses on boosting children’s creative abilities in expressing their ideas with various items. This research was conducted at Santo Yusup II Kindergarten in Bandung using descriptive qualitative research methods and purposive sampling techniques. This research found that the process of a child capturing an object involves both external and internal communication. Children observe, respond to, and analyze things around them through their five senses and represent their experiences and intuitions through creative images. An enjoyable creative process, where children are directly involved in new situations, boosts their enthusiasm and receptiveness in acquiring knowledge.

Weaving techniques not only use natural materials such as rattan, bamboo, and pandan leaves but can also use non-natural materials, one of which is a textile fabric that can be applied to men’s ready-to-wear fashion products. Given the high market demand for male fashion products that require a new touch to be more dynamic and keep up with the times. Therefore, there is potential in the weaving technique that can be applied to clothing, especially to preserve the weaving technique and offer a fresh look for men’s fashion products to the market. Given that the weaving technique is also a basic technique used in making a piece of cloth but the process of making the cloth is assisted by a tool called a non-machine loom or ATBM and gedog manually.

Its Javanese version stops at the part where Sita is brought back to Ayodhya and Rama is crowned as King. The moral values in the story are still relevant to today’s modern life, especially the younger generation; therefore, the meaning of Ramayana story in the cyborg costume becomes significant.
