4. Activities Obstacle Course/Relay – Paper Maze – Nutrition Quiz – Egg Toss – Puzzle “Jing-Ilugin” “Vidyuhin Ilugin”

5. Obstacle Course/Relay Each station of the obstacle course puts emphasis on a specific skill or trait that the CHWs need to master, either individually or as a group, in order to win the game. Each skill or trait is essential to a CHW’s role in helping promote the importance of good health care in the community.

6. Paper Maze CHWs need to navigate through a web-like obstacle course of crepe paper. Trait: Teamwork (the team must overcome the weaknesses of other members through their other members’ strengths); Self-discipline (the maze must not be rushed for it to be successfully accomplished)

7. Nutrition Quiz Team members are given 10 nutrition-related questions to answer; they must answer 6/10 in order to proceed. Skill: Basic knowledge or background about nutrition (important for the upcoming nutrition month, as CHWs will also be responsible for educating parents about the importance of good nutrition)

9. Puzzle CHWs are given pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that spell out a message. They must assemble the puzzle to be able to read the message, which they should shout upon completion. Trait: Teamwork (all members of the group must work together to get the puzzle pieces to fit in the correct positions)

10. “Jing-Ilugin” Jingle-making contest CHWs must come up with an original, short nutrition-related jingle with accompanying choreography. If appropriate, the winning jingle will be used as promotional material for the upcoming Nutrition Month activity.
