Introduction
The quality of children today is a determinant of the quality of human resources in the future. Future development begins with the development of today's children. To prepare quality human resources in the future, children need to be prepared so that children can grow and develop optimally according to their abilities (Naudeau et al., 2010).
Every mother as the person closest to her toddler must understand optimally the growth and development of her child. Growth and development is a continuous process from conception to maturity (adulthood) which is influenced by innate and environmental factors (Brazelton & Greenspan, 2009). Growth and development have occurred since the baby was in the womb until after birth. Since its birth, the development of children can be observed (Sulistyowati, 2019). Many factors influence the growth and development of children, including age, because, during the prenatal period, infants, toddlers, and adolescents are a stage that experiences rapid growth compared to other periods, and environmental factors are very important because the interaction between mother and child greatly affects child development (Susilaningrum & Utami, 2013).
Toddler's growth and development based on WHO (2007) along with age, from the age of 0 months of course growth and development began to be observed by all parents. Starting from the growth of 0-1 years of age, which includes periodic weight gain and height, dental growth, In Southeast Sulawesi Province based on the Health Profile of Southeast Sulawesi 2017, in the last 5 years, it seems that there has been growth fluctuation but has an increasing trend, from 2013 D / S coverage could reach 64.47%, and in 2017 it has reached 71.95%. There have been no new attempts or breakthroughs to increase the coverage of weighing children under five in each area, so the results of annual coverage only show an insignificant increase.
Kolaka District Health Profile in 2017, from the data obtained, shows monitoring of the growth of children under five is carried out through weighing activities at Posyandu regularly every month. The results of the compilation of 12 Puskesmas in Kolaka Regency in 2017, found that 21,194 children under five were weighed or 68.6% of the 30,881 children reported. The number of children under five who gained weight was 99.4% or 21,194 people, BGM was 0.6% (127 people), poor nutrition was 0.02% (4 people). (Kolaka District Health Office, 2017).
From the results of preliminary data conducted at the pomalaa health center, there were 3,572 toddlers in Pomalaa District with details of 468 boys aged 12-23 months, 1,398 aged 24-59 months, and female toddlers aged 12-23 months. 427 people, aged 24-59 months as many as 1,279 people. Monitoring of the growth was carried out from 3,572 children under five, found that there were no obstacles/problems in the growth and development of children under five, but partly only malnutrition that occurred, it was a factor of the parents themselves.
From these data, it shows that there are children under five in Huko-huko village weighed in May 2019 as many as 82 people or 36.1% of 227 toddlers who have KMS, and the number of toddlers who gain weight is proportional to toddlers who are weighed, namely as many as 82 people or 36, 1%.

Results and Discussion
After processing and presenting the data and the results, the following will discuss the results of the research according to the variables studied in Desa Huko-huko, Kec. Pomalaa Kab.
Kolaka.

Knowledge is the result of knowing something from humans, or all human actions to understand certain objects. Knowledge can manifest things either through the senses or through reason, it can also be an object that is concerned with psychological problems. Knowledge is the result of human curiosity about something and a desire to increase the dignity of life so that life becomes better and more comfortable which develops as an effort to meet human needs both in the present and in the future. Knowledge is the result of knowing that occurs after a person senses an object through the five senses such as sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch by himself (Strati, 2007). A person's good knowledge is influenced by several factors including internal and external factors (Ebert et al., 2013).
The results of the research on the age of mothers in the huko-huko village, it can be seen in the table that information is obtained that of the 69 mothers who became respondents, 12 people with good knowledge were early adults (17.39%), 7 people had sufficient knowledge (10.14%). , and less knowledgeable as many as 5 people (7.24%). 12 people with good knowledge (17.39%), 9 people with sufficient knowledge (13.04%), and 6 people with less knowledge (8.69%). Final adults who have good knowledge are 13 people (18.84%), 5 people with sufficient knowledge (7.24%), and lack of knowledge. With sufficient age, they will have a mature mindset and experience as well.
From the results of research conducted we can see that age is one of the factors affecting knowledge. Someone who is old enough will interact well with other people so that he will have good knowledge too. Experience in parenting will provide knowledge and skills in monitoring child development.

Medium education (SMA) with good knowledge as many as 13 people (18.84%), knowledgeable enough 6 people (8.69%), less knowledgeable 1 person (1.44%), then universities with good knowledge as many as 3 people ( 4.34%), knowledgeable enough 0 (0%) and less knowledgeable 0 (0%).
Education is the entire life process that is owned by each individual in the form of individual interactions with their environment, both formally and informally involving individual and group behavior. Education means guidance given by someone to the development of others towards certain ideals to fill life so as to achieve happiness.
From the research that has been done, we can know that education is a factor that affects knowledge, one of which is that there are still mothers who do not understand health problems, especially toddler development, so this is what we know that the higher a person's education, the easier that person will receive information. With high education, a person tends to get information from both other people and the mass media. Knowledge is closely related to education, someone with higher education, the more extensive the knowledge they have.
From the results of the research that has been done, it shows that of the 69 mothers who became respondents, 5 people had good knowledge (7.24%), 5 people had sufficient knowledge (7.24%), and 2 people had less knowledge (2, 89%). multipara with good knowledge as many as 26 people (37.68%), knowledgeable enough as many as 13 people (18.84%), and less knowledgeable as many as 9 people (13.04%).
