This edited monograph is the result of a collaborative European initiative (2024-1-PL01-KA220-HED-000250640) that brought together seven higher education institutions from four European countries: Wroclaw University of Health and Sport Sciences (Poland), Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań (Poland), Maria Grzegorzewska University of Warsaw (Poland), University of Rome “Foro Italico” (Italy), Aristotle Uni-versity of Thessaloniki (Greece), University of Warsaw (Poland), Ivan Boberskyi Lviv State University of Physical Culture (Ukraine). The initiative introduces and further de-velops evidence-based, innovative, interdisciplinary methods collectively referred to as Learning by Moving. These methods are designed for children aged 5–10, including those with special educational needs or adaptation difficulties. These approaches combine learning with physical activity to support children’s holistic development in the areas of motor skills, cognition, emotions, and social skills.
