This article deals with education in relation to the emerging context of Alpha Generation, or technology-driven generation. Therefore, parents are very important to explore to be able to integrate technology tools with good education. Research shows that parents have the most important role in creating an environment that is appropriate for children. Technology is part of the lives of parents and children, so there are concerns about the negative impact on very young children, especially on cognitive, motor, and social development.

They spend most of their time in digital technology. The present generation of children, called 'Generation Alpha' is very different from the previous generation. Children grow along with the rapidly evolving technology, ranging from television to computers, smartphones, and digital tablet devices with various applications. Technological developments increasingly consistent in everyday life. For further researchers, it is recommended to conduct classroom action research, to get more measurable results. It was concluded that the teacher's efforts to motivate students through ice breaking had a positive impact on students' learning motivation. The results of this research show that the application of ice breaking can increase students' motivation in learning. Teachers as motivators can motivate students through the application of ice breaking. Therefore, the purpose of writing this paper is to examine the efforts of teachers in increasing the learning motivation of kindergarten students to learn online, using descriptive qualitative methods. The behavior of the students that appeared were yawning, sitting back lazily, putting their head on the table, and communicating with people at home, so they didn't pay attention to the teacher.

However, in fact, when the author conducted a practicum in one of the kindergartens in Kupang city on 7 July - 27 August 2021, it was found that the behavior of students' learning motivation was low. It is expected that teachers can increase online learning so that students are motivated to learn.
