    This research focuses on pantomime in the development of body language in children aged 4 to 5. It addresses a common problem in early childhood education: the lack of stimulation of body language as an essential component of comprehensive development. The lack of artistic and recreational strategies in schools hinders children's ability to convey a message nonverbally, which harms their spontaneity, creativity, and social skills. Thus, the objective of this research was to analyze the effectiveness of pantomime in improving body language in children aged 4 to 5. The methodology applied was qualitative, including instruments such as a child observation form and interviews with teachers to obtain information on the development of body language in children. The resulting findings show that the implementation of pantomime activities applied as a theatrical technique is essential for stimulating body language. It also promotes children's emotional, social, and linguistic development, as well as their ability to express themselves and connect with others. However, areas for improvement were identified, such as body movement and synchronization of facial expressions, as well as encouraging collaboration among peers in group activities. The importance of this research lies in its emphasis on pantomime, an effective theatrical technique for motor, emotional, communicative, and physical development in early childhood. Finally, the incorporation of pantomime activities into educational planning is recommended to promote more comprehensive development in children.
