The main goal of the project was to promote a balanced and mindful integration of digital technologies into the educational process as a means of supporting children's physical health, emotional well-being, and the development of an active, healthy lifestyle. Within this framework, the project set the following objectives: 1. To foster healthy habits and an awareness of personal well-being through the thoughtful use of digital tools in education. 2. To support educators by developing methodological materials and facilitating the exchange of effective practices for the health-conscious use of technologies in teaching. 3. To develop children's digital competencies, critical thinking, and responsible attitudes toward screen time and their own health. 4. To combine active lifestyles with digital learning to ensure the holistic development of each child. 5. To strengthen cooperation between European schools and kindergartens through the exchange of knowledge, best practices, and cultural traditions. The project fostered the integration of digital literacy and healthy lifestyle in education while supporting educators' professional growth through new methodological resources and international exchange.
We applied to participate in the project based on the recognition of the need to develop the competent use of digital technologies in the educational process, with a focus on promoting children's health and encouraging physical activity. In today's society, growing concerns about the negative impact of excessive screen time on children's development, emotional well-being, and physical health are accompanied by an increasing need for the meaningful integration of digital tools into education to foster essential skills and digital literacy among both children and educators. The aim of the project was to support educators by developing methodological materials and facilitating the exchange of effective practices that promote the integration of modern information technologies into the educational process in a way that preserves and enhances children's health and key competences. In addition, the project sought to empower parents to become more competent in the use of digital technologies, enabling them to apply healthy digital practices at home and to support their children's balanced development and well-being.
