The problems experienced by orphanages are the lack of reading culture so that they have difficulty in learning. Especially during the current pandemic, children prefer to spend time playing with their friends at the orphanage rather than taking the time to study. From this problem, the author is interested and has the aim of increasing interest in reading for orphans which is a mini project from this author on education to children. The author has a client (group) who is experiencing this problem. The group consists of children who are still in elementary school (SD).
