The Health Star

 A fun and interactive workshop tool

How to use the Health Star


The Health Star features five points, each representing a unique challenge or activity that encourages participants to think about their physical, mental, and social well-being.
Feel free to divide a larger group into five smaller groups, with each group starting at a different challenge or activity. The groups can then rotate between the stations until all participants have completed all five challenges.

Each activity is easy to facilitate, with downloadable resources . Teachers can use the Health Star as a standalone workshop or integrate it into a broader health education program or develop your own concept.

  1. Activity - Physical Challenge: Get moving with an exciting physical task that promotes activity and highlights the importance of staying active for a healthy body.
  2. Food - Fruit & Veggie challenge: Guess the dish and discover the importance of greens in your diet.
  3. Inner health - Superpower Check-In: Participants reflect on their mental strengths by identifying their "superpowers".
  4. Outdoor Life - Embrace the nature: Watch an engaging video about outdoor activities and the Swedish concept of “allemansrätten” (the right of public access), encouraging respect for nature and outdoor fun.
  5. Health Quiz - Lifestyle related questions: Test your knowledge with a health quiz designed to spark curiosity and conversation about making healthier choices.

The Health Star is more than just an educational tool—it’s an opportunity for participants to learn, reflect, and have fun while building competence that support their well-being. By completing the challenges, participants not only gain practical knowledge but also foster understanding of the importance of a balanced, healthy lifestyle.
Whether you're a teacher, youth leader, or parent, the Health Star provides a creative and meaningful way to inspire young minds to prioritize their health and enjoy the journey of self-discovery.
