Data collection was carried out using observation, documentation and test techniques. Data analysis techniques include validity tests, normality tests and hypothesis tests to find out whether there are differences in the results of measuring children's logical thinking abilities. Based on the research conducted, the following results were obtained: (1) the use of interactive brainsmart games media can improve the logical thinking abilities of children aged 5-6 years (2) the interactive media brainsmart games is effective for improving logical thinking abilities in children aged 5-6 years. The results of research and data analysis show that the average PreTest score is 13.45, which is lower than the Post Test score, namely 19.75. Meanwhile, the results of hypothesis testing using the paired sample T-test revealed the sig value. (2-tailed) of 0.000. From the increase in learning outcomes, it can be concluded that the games are effective in improving the logical thinking abilities of children aged 5-6 years.
