Education is currently experiencing a significant influence from the rapid development of technology. This encourages the world of education to continue to adapt, both in teaching methods and learning media. This adaptation is important so that learning remains relevant, interesting and effective for students, especially at the early childhood education level. This research aims to design learning media to introduce endemic animals in Indonesia by utilizing AR technology. This research uses the Design and Development (D&D) method, with the main focus being the process of creating or developing AR-based learning media carried out through the stages in the ADDIE model. The results showed that AR-based interactive learning media that had been designed, made and carried out validation tests. The validation results showed that the material expert gave a score of 30 with a good assessment category, while the media expert gave a score of 25 with the same assessment category. From these results, it is concluded that this media is declared feasible to use to introduce Indonesian endemic animals to early childhood. The implication of this research is that AR-based learning media can be an effective solution to introduce animals in a more real way, where the visual approach used is able to attract students' interest and increase their understanding, especially in recognizing local animals.
