3.  underweight children aged 6-10 years increased from 22.8 percent to 25.6 percent, equivalent to 2.6 million  under height children in this age group likewise increased from 32 percent to 33.1 percent

4.  To foster camaraderie and self- worth among the Community Health Workers by promotion of teamwork and unity through an enjoyable and cost-effective team- building activity

5.  Create new attitude about nutrition and healthy living among a sample of children 4-6 y/o in the community through education and creativity

6.  To develop a useful tool for evaluating the impact of the feeding program on its participants and at the same time, provide useful and accessible nutrition information to their caregivers.

8. Rationale  Human resource is the most important aspect of any organization  Conflicts among team members lead to reduced work efficiency  It is very important that members have both a good working and personal relationship with each other

9.  To let the CHWs understand the importance of good communication skills and teamwork  To motivate the CHWs into continuing to serve their community  To allow the CHWs to have fun and be given recognition for their efforts

10.  Obstacle Course/Relay  Paper Maze  Nutrition Quiz  Egg Toss  Puzzle  “Jing-Ilugin”  “Vidyuhin Ilugin”

11.  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.

12.  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)

13.  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)

14.  Each CHW pair from the team tosses an egg back and forth to one another, moving farther apart with each subsequent toss. They must catch the egg on all occasions.  Trait: Trust in their partner

15.  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)

16.  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.

17.  CHWs need to understand the concept of good nutrition so that they can also pass on this knowledge to other members of the community.  Giving the CHWs a sense of ownership over the nutrition jingle may empower them to be more active in promoting proper nutrition.

18.  Video presentation that chronicles the activities of the CHWs, clerks, residents, consultants, and members of the community during the ComPeds rotation.  Also serves as a “thank you” message or acknowledgment of all the efforts the CHWs put into helping the community.

19.  Includes:  Thank you messages from consultants & residents  Thank you messages from current and previous clerks  Thank you messages from members of the community  Pictures/videos of CHWs doing their everyday tasks in the community center

20.  By the end of the activity, the CHWs are expected to:  Understand the importance of unity and teamwork in accomplishing set goals  Have some basic knowledge about what constitutes proper nutrition  Receive recognition for their efforts in helping the community
