However, currently, the interest of Indonesian children in consuming herbs tends to decrease. The stigma that herbs is bitter is the reason why herbs is unlikeable.

Meanwhile, students' knowledge about herbs was analyzed and evaluated based on the results of the pre-test and post-test. The results of the program showed that students’ interest in herbs increased by 83% after a learning media namely herbs snake ladder game was applied.
