According to several studies from 2013 to 2019, many children in Yogyakarta do not understand Javanese vocabulary. Javanese vocabulary should be introducing to children aged 4-5 years. The introduction of vocabulary is helpful for children to expand their knowledge and familiarize themselves with the language. When the child moves to elementary school, he has no trouble following Javanese language lessons. Access to introductions, government policies, and media are still limited. Picture books can be an alternative medium for introducing vocabulary. The availability of an easy and attractive picture book to introduce Javanese vocabulary is still lacking. In addition, there has been no research on the design of picture books on easy and attractive Javanese vocabulary for children aged 4-5 years in Yogyakarta. This study is design-based research to reveal an easy and attractive strategy to design a picture book of Javanese vocabulary and implement it in a physical book. The purpose of this research is to create a picture book about Javanese vocabulary's introduction through a lift a flap approach that is easy and attractive for children aged 4-5 years in Yogyakarta.
