The real change happens when the community works together to take care of its members. The key to the success of this program is our core belief that children succeed when the adults around them also participate in the game. The Element of Play\u00ae element provides a game-based and evidence-based program to children and families, and our trainings on the programs provide the necessary skills and knowledge to work with the program to specialists, teachers and parents who work with children from the community. When children learn how to overcome challenges, they take a huge step towards becoming strong and successful adults.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b40cc1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1b40cc1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ea1313 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-ld_content_box\" data-id=\"4ea1313\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"ld_content_box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"lqd-fb pos-rel lqd-fb-style-1 lqd-fb-style-1-1 lqd-fb-content-overlay lqd-fb-zoom-img-onhover border-radius-4 overflow-hidden h-pt-100\" data-inview=\"true\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lqd-fb-inner lqd-overlay\" data-slideelement-onhover=\"true\" data-slideelement-options='{ \"visibleElement\": \"h6, h3\", \"hiddenElement\": \".lqd-fb-txt\", \"disableOnMobile\": true }'>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"overflow-hidden lqd-fb-img lqd-overlay\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"w-100 h-100\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"w-100 h-100 objfit-cover objfit-center\" src=\"https:\/\/rise-children.bg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DSC09834.jpg\">\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lqd-fb-content lqd-overlay d-flex align-items-end\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lqd-fb-bg lqd-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"lqd-fb-content-inner pos-rel w-100\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-custom-animations=\"true\"\n\t\t\t\t\tdata-ca-options='{ \"triggerHandler\": \"inview\", \"animationTarget\": \"h6, h3, .lqd-fb-txt\", \"duration\": 1200, \"delay\": 120,  \"startDelay\": 250, \"initValues\": { \"y\": 30, \"opacity\": 0 }, \"animations\": { \"y\": 0, \"opacity\": 1 } }'>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"mt-0 mb-0 lqd-fb__title \">Early Childhood Component<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#ranno-detstvo\" class=\"lqd-overlay\"><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ddf94e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"2ddf94e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" id=\"ranno-detstvo\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-899bd9b elementor-widget elementor-widget-hub_fancy_heading\" data-id=\"899bd9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"hub_fancy_heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"ld-fancy-heading-6acf61c019713\" class=\"ld-fancy-heading pos-rel\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"ld-fh-element d-inline-block pos-rel  elementor-heading-title lqd-highlight-classic lqd-highlight-grow-left h2\"  > What is behind The Element of Play\u00ae: the scientific basis<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e51e926 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e51e926\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Research over the past 30 years has shown that a child&#8217;s early experiences shape the brain and determine its future health, learning ability and behavior.  <em>(Source: Center for the Developing Child at Harvard University)<\/em><\/p><p><strong>The most important period in human development is from birth to 8 years of age.<br><\/strong>The game is a powerful tool for building thinking skills, emotional health, and social competence.
