Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan pengaruh aktivitas Pengurutan Bentuk dan Warna terhadap kemampuan klasifikasi anak usia 5–6 tahun. Desain pretest–posttest satu kelompok digunakan, dengan total sampel sebanyak 20 partisipan. Data diperoleh melalui penilaian pretest dan posttest dan dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif, pengujian asumsi parametrik, ANOVA, dan analisis regresi. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan kemampuan klasifikasi setelah intervensi, yang ditunjukkan oleh peningkatan skor rata-rata dari 54,30 pada pretest menjadi 66,95 pada posttest. Uji ANOVA mengungkapkan perbedaan yang signifikan secara statistik (F=13,193; p=0,001). Analisis regresi lebih lanjut menunjukkan bahwa aktivitas Pengurutan Bentuk dan Warna berkontribusi 26,8% terhadap varians pada skor posttest (R²=0,268; p=0,019). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran berbasis manipulatif efektif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan klasifikasi anak usia dini. Studi ini memberikan implikasi praktis bagi pendidik anak usia dini untuk menerapkan aktivitas pengurutan terstruktur sebagai strategi untuk mendukung perkembangan kognitif anak.
