Giriloyo Batik in Wukirsari Village, Imogiri Subdistrict, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta Special Region, is one of the most well-known batik production centers with international recognition. Currently, Wukirsari is known as a cultural educational tourism destination and has been named by UNESCO as one of the world’s best villages. However, this status contrasts with the declining preservation and regeneration of batik in Wukirsari. The current batik production is dominated by the older generation, posing a risk to the continuity of this tradition without regeneration and preservation efforts. This community service program aims to address this issue by introducing and educating children about batik from an early age through a children’s batik school program using animated stories, batik folklore, and tales about Giriloyo Batik Village. The methods include lectures and direct educational activities. The program is expected to strengthen cultural awareness and creativity among children from an early age. The implication of this activity offers a new perspective on batik preservation and regeneration through creative educational approaches involving the wider community.
