Active lifestyle
Nowadays, when children spend a lot of time in front of screens and when they are taught that with little effort they can get a lot of pleasure and stimulation, it is important to use every opportunity to cultivate healthy lifestyles (staying in the air, sports, competition, bearing with victory and loss. ..).
The Children's Olympics is a real opportunity for that. 400 children from 10 different kindergartens participated in the competition. Children competed in several categories: long jump, ball throwing, relay race, running, football and tug of war.

On mother's day we organized sports games for children and their mothers. We had a great time together. Promoting a healthy lifestyle is easier and better with the support of parents.

Promoting an active lifestyle with children is essential for their physical and mental well-being, and we integrate various activities into our routine to encourage them to stay active. Here are some ways we promote an active lifestyle in our classroom:
1. **Outdoor Play**: We make time every day for outdoor activities like running, jumping, and playing games such as tag or hide-and-seek. Spending time in nature helps children develop motor skills while enjoying fresh air.

3. **Movement Breaks**: During the day, we incorporate short movement breaks where children engage in simple exercises, stretches, or dance. These breaks help them release energy, stay focused, and improve their physical health.

In Iceland, we have so many swimming pools due to almost free hot water and geothermal springs. Families enjoy spending hours in local pools. That is just a must do during weekends, free days or any available time during a day. Exploring lava fields is a great adventure as organised fun activities or sport is.
For children aged 6-18 there is a frístundastyrkur (Leisure Grant) which represents a financial subsidy provided by many municipalities in Iceland to support children's participation in organized leisure activities, such as sports, music, art, or other extracurricular programs.
The grant is designed to make these activities more accessible for families by covering part of the costs, such as membership fees or program registration. Each municipality sets the amount and rules for the grant, and parents can apply through the local government’s website or specific platforms.
