The character development nowadays have been a national issue regarding the increasing act of crime, moral decadency and ethical corruption in multiple places including the schools. These phenomena showed the importance of character development as soon as possible. One of the characters that should be developed is the kindness, namely the character that describes the tendency for doing something good to the other people, to love and to pay attention to the prosperity of the other people, to help those who need assistance, to show their care and to look after the other people. Based on the problems that have been explained, the study was to generate the Play- Based Group Guidance Model (Model Bimbingan Kelompok Berbasis Bermain) for Developing the Character of Kindness in the Toddler. The model was developed based on the concepts and the characteristics of playing game, the group guidance by means of Adlerian approach, the guidance-based learning and the developmentally appropriate guidance. The results of the research showed that the BKBB Model that had been developed and that had been implemented in the kindergarten might be integrated to the learning process and, according to the reflection of the kindergarten-level teachers, might be implemented for developing the character of kindness especially among the kindergarten students. The recommendation of the study would be that the BKBB Model might be implemented for assisting the students in developing the character of kindness that might be benefitted by the kindergarten operators. © Serials Publications.
