The habit of lack of doing daily activities is often categorized as sedentary behavior where this sedentary behavior is said to have a bad impact on children. One of the impacts that arise from sedentary activity is a decrease in the child's reaction time. Reaction time is the length of time from the receipt of a stimulus to the appearance of a desired response. Visual reaction time is one of the variables that affect reading speed in children, starting from children getting sensory input in the form of letters then interpreting what letters they see until a response occurs, namely pronouncing the letters correctly. The purpose of the implementation of this service is to provide socialization of the impact of sedentary behavior and examination of visual reaction times in elementary school children.
