The project "Game for health - game for the future" in partnership with institutions from Poland, Iceland, Latvia, Wales (UK) and two institutions from Greece was a response to the defined needs of each of the target groups of partner institutions participating in the project: children, parents, local environment. This made it possible to achieve jointly defined goals: Main goal: Improving the daily life habits of children and their families during the project In addition, we have achieved goals such as: We introduced the children: - with good and bad eating habits - with ways of spending free time in the form of physical activity - with the basic rules of oral hygiene - with new methods to help you deal with stress and emotions - with an urgent need to care for the environment In addition, participation in the project contributed to the improvement of the quality of work of partner facilities, especially in the area of healthy habits of everyday life. Each partner contributed examples of good practices to the project. The target group directly involved in the project were 16 teachers from partner institutions as well as children and their families. The teachers directly involved in the project were open to innovation and creative approach to learning, especially at the lowest level of education. In order to achieve the intended results, 6 short training meetings for teachers and employees were held. During these meetings, teachers shared their experience in using innovative methods of working with children, took part in open classes, discussions and thematic workshops. In addition, between the meetings in the branches, specific activities were carried out to achieve the assumed results and products, which include - Innovation program "Game for health - game for the future", containing innovative methods and tools for working with children, - scenarios of workshops for parents and teachers - printout - Cooking on the screen - film, - Cookbook - four seasons - printout, The eTwinning platform was used to implement the project, which was the base of the developed materials and tools in the form of a project open to all users under the same title.

The main results that we have achieved are: - children have acquired the ability to identify good and bad eating habits - knowledge of active leisure time has increased - children strengthened the skills of proper oral hygiene - we paid attention to the need to care for the immediate environment, - teachers' knowledge of innovative methods and tools for the implementation of activities promoting a healthy lifestyle has increased - we have made attempts to change the attitude related to taking care of our own and others' health - teachers have increased their competence in the use of methods that facilitate coping with stress and emotions, and thus the transfer of habits to everyday situations and learning how to discharge emotions by children - the awareness of parents and the local community, including institutions operating in the field of education, on the importance of using and promoting a healthy lifestyle for future generations has increased - the quality of work of partner facilities in terms of improving healthy lifestyle habits has increased. The implementation of the project signaled to the entire local community in the partner countries the importance of not only continuous training and improvement, but most of all the importance of gaining experience in order to increase the professional competences of employees, and thus achieve high standards of education. We encouraged the parents themselves to use new solutions and methods of working with the child in order to achieve educational and upbringing effects and prepare them for life in a constantly changing reality. Participation in the project brought long-term benefits through the development of products that will be incorporated in the daily work in the partner schools in the coming years. However, most of all, we paid attention to the need to change the habits of everyday life so that our lives and the lives of our children have a better quality. We also encouraged other teachers to acquire new professional competences, gain experience from other educational systems as a way to achieve success in working with the child and his family, and to improve the quality of education.
