Tujuan utama penelitian ini adalah untuk menyelidiki dampak aktivitas berbasis tanah liat terhadap kemampuan manajemen emosi anak-anak usia lima hingga enam tahun di Taman Kanak-Kanak Islam Al Azhar 32 Padang. Kematangan sosial dan emosional anak usia dini sangat bergantung pada kemampuan untuk mengatur perasaan, karena hal ini memungkinkan anak-anak untuk mengidentifikasi, mengendalikan, dan mewujudkan keadaan internal mereka secara seimbang di berbagai lingkungan. Untuk mencapai hal ini, dilakukan investigasi kuantitatif dengan menggunakan kerangka kerja kuasi-eksperimental yang terstruktur di sekitar Desain Kelompok Kontrol Tidak Setara. Tiga puluh empat peserta direkrut melalui pengambilan sampel klaster dan dibagi rata menjadi kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol, masing-masing terdiri dari 17 anak. Sementara kelompok eksperimen terlibat dalam pembuatan model tanah liat yang terstruktur, kelompok kontrol berfokus pada latihan menggambar tanpa bimbingan. Data primer dikumpulkan melalui catatan observasi bersama dengan bukti arsip, diikuti oleh verifikasi statistik yang ketat termasuk pengujian validitas, reliabilitas, normalitas, dan homogenitas, yang berpuncak pada uji t Sampel Independen yang diproses melalui IBM SPSS Statistics versi 29. Pengukuran dasar yang diambil sebelum intervensi mengkonfirmasi tidak adanya perbedaan yang berarti, didukung oleh tingkat signifikansi 0,898 yang melebihi ambang batas 0,05. Sebaliknya, pengamatan pasca-intervensi menghasilkan nilai signifikansi 0,023, yang berada di bawah batas 0,05 dan mengkonfirmasi varians substansial dalam hasil antara kedua kelompok. Dengan kinerja pasca-uji rata-rata 21,12, kelompok eksperimen mengungguli kelompok kontrol mereka, yang mencapai rata-rata 19,35. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa pembuatan model dari tanah liat menawarkan pengaruh yang kuat dan konstruktif pada pengembangan pengendalian emosi pada anak-anak usia lima hingga enam tahun. Akibatnya, pendidik dapat mempertimbangkan tanah liat sebagai instrumen instruksional yang berharga untuk mendorong pertumbuhan sosial dan emosional dalam lingkungan prasekolah.
