"Klasse in Bewegung" (the class moves) - for children age 3 to 10 - Promotion of exercise amongst preschool and schoolchildren at an appropriate level for the children. For the children of kindergarten and school age, 7 calendars were produced which can be used over the entire kindergarten and school year, with new calendar pages for each month. Experience gained to date in the Netherlands, Belgium and Scotland shows that those exposed to the project were very quickly motivated to participate, and that the project has a positive influence upon fine and coarse motor skills, motor actions, concentration, behaviour, and the well-being of the children and of the adults involved.
