«Muuvit» program is a game which induces pupils to be more physically active and to reach the set goals together with classmates by means of the virtual journey. Meanwhile, the program is an international platform to popularize healthy lifestyle inspiring children to lead it. The «Muuvit» game implies the virtual journey to the European cities with the class. Each pupil has to be physically active and move around as much as possible throughout the day in order to fulfi ll the journey. A pupil gets a point, which is written down on the special card, for every 10 minutes of being active in the game. Th e total number of points of the class are converted into the virtual kilometers. Thus, the more each child moves in the game, the faster the journey is fulfi lled.
