Abstract

This community service activity was part of the Family Guidance and Counseling course in Susukan 3 Hamlet, Margokaton, Seyegan, Sleman, Yogyakarta. The activity aimed to enhance Family Welfare Movement (PKK) mothers' understanding of effective communication and proper parenting in building harmonious families. The methods included lectures, group discussions, Q&A sessions, and the distribution of physical infographics. In the first session, participants received material on "Effective Communication as the Key to Building Harmonious Families." In contrast, the second session focused on good parenting, particularly in managing tantrum behavior in children. The results showed increased participants' knowledge, demonstrated by enthusiastic discussions and quiz-based evaluations.
