Abstrak
Seni dalam Islam merupakan ekspresi tauhid dan profetik, yang dalam neurosains dinyatakan mampu mengaktivasi otak, mempengaruhi emosi, meningkatkan keterampilan sosial, motivasi, kesadaran budaya dan apresiasi estetika. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis sinergi seni dan sains dalam pembelajaran anak usia dini pada tiga lembaga PIAUD di Yogyakarta yang memiliki corak keisalaman beragam. Pendekatan penelitian ini adalah kualitatif deskriptif. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan observasi, wawancara mendalam dan dokumentasi. Teknik anailis data dilakukan secara deskriptif, interpretatif dan komparatif dengan mengacu teori pembelajaran neurosains. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa yang menjadikan seni selalu kontroversi dengan ajaran Islam bukan pada esensinya, melainkan pada hal-hal lain yang sering kali diekspresikan secara tidak etis. Seni dalam pendidikan Islam anak usia dini adalah seni religi yang empatik dan meaning fullness sehingga tidak saja sesuai dengan ajaran Islam melainkan menjadi kebutuhan asasi setiap orang. Sinergi seni dan sains dalam pembelajaran anak usia dini dapat meningkatkan kreatifitas belajar.
