Abstract
This study examined the effect of rope play through forest experience on children's self-confidence. Empirical analysis through the experimental design was carried out on an experimental group of 15 (seven male and eight female children) and a control group of 15 (nine male and six female children). Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) for the effect between the experimental and control groups after the experimental treatment showed that the mean of the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control group (F=357.350, p<.001). Rope play through forest experience has a statistically significant effect on the children's self-confidence. Consequently, rope play through forest experience between peers is a beneficial experience that helps improve children's self-confidence. Furthermore, it is a positive play activity to help them with a passive character boost to their self-confidence through cooperation between peers.
