dc.description.abstractHealth promotion and education aims to provide and develop strategies for the seizure of information by the individual, with consequent change in attitudes and behaviours. In this context, and with a view to reducing risk factors associated with infectious diseases, preventive measures should be adopted daily. Given that children are aware of the hygiene care importance but do not always have access to information about it, an intervention on this topic was carried out with a group of 10 children with an average age of 8 years old, with the goal of motivating participants to perform hygiene acts. The activity took place in a virtual room, on the Zoom/Colibri Platform, using Microsoft® PowerPoint and EaseUS Video Editor®, and was based on three sequential steps: (1) introduction of fundamental concepts; (2) exploration of the main groups of microorganisms and diseases; (3) multiple choice games and crossword puzzles. During the session, attention and interest in the contents were remarkable through the children's participation. In the games, they demonstrated excellent responsiveness and willingness to interact with all players. This approach, with several teaching–learning methodologies, proved to be enriching and allowed the acquisition of transversal and specific skills in several areas. This intervention promoted physical and emotional health in children, which follows a fundamental line to form sustainable societies since the children of today are the adults of the future.pt_PT
