Come Out and Play: The project “Come Out & Play!” had an aim to outline the importance of outdoor activities and street games as means of dealing with young people’s addiction to internet and the “videophilia” phenomenon. This was achieved with a very entertaining, participatory and learning way. So, the main idea of the project was based on the street games that are or were played in various countries, usually by the older generations. 38 youngsters from 7 European countries (Italy, Romania, Hungary, Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Slovakia and Greece) took part in this project that mainly examined the issues of internet and on-line gaming addiction and explored healthy ways of living.
