In this project, the aim is to approach from design the disease in children aged 5 to 6 years, from Suba, in Bogotá belonging to stratum 3 (Colombian classification) , for which the available scientific evidence is reasoned and from this it is observed that the lack of physical activity and bad eating habits are the ones that send the most the health of minors and in the end generally said disease, considering the variables that can generate it, and that, in various studies studied, the need to create mechanisms that are integrated to the needs of children is evidenced, and that, in addition, is possible to adapt them to everyday life. Therefore, in this project playful system is developed as a mechanism to counteract this problem, this system, in turn, seeks to reinforce the relationships between parents and children, since, in most cases, they are the figure authority or the example to be imitated, that is why they are a variable that must be addressed in order to develop the problem in its entirety. The aim is to create an knowledge space whose effects last over time, which effectively integrates and controls the greatest number of variables and which is a positive interaction for the child, feeling part of the project, actively participating in the solution.
