The methodology used in this research was active participation supported by learning techniques such as playful games, brainstorming, infographics, video presentations, and dynamics, which helped to develop the educational program and strengthen the children's knowledge. It is concluded that the results showed a statistically meaningful impact in the workshops on children based on the topic.
