On 16 January 2026, the first family workshop of the Erasmus+ project PAVE: Active Engagement for Parents through Values was successfully delivered with the first group of parents and carers from Colegio Sagrada Familia Jesuitinas (Valladolid, Spain).
Building on our previous update about the project, this first session focused on four core values: Love, Peace, Trust and Human Dignity. The workshop combined cooperative dynamics and modern board game-based activities, supported by images, guided reflection, and collaborative discussion, helping families explore how these values appear (or are sometimes missing) in everyday home life, and how to strengthen them in a conscious and meaningful way.
A playful, meaningful approach: helping “monsters” transform into values
A key element of Workshop 1 is its gamified narrative: families meet several “monsters” that represent the absence of each value, and through the activities they help transform them, turning challenges into opportunities for learning and connection at home.
To make the project accessible beyond the in-person sessions at Colegio Sagrada Familia Jesuitinas (Valladolid), EIMBG has created a downloadable family workbook in Spanish so any Spanish-speaking family can replicate Workshop 1 at home, even if they could not attend the face-to-face workshop.
Downloads:
- Family Workbook – Workshop 1 (Spanish)
- Envelope Labels (opening requirements)
- Envelope Missions (what goes inside each envelope)
How to replicate the workshop exactly (the 10-envelope system)
To run the workshop at home exactly as it is implemented in our sessions, families will need:
- The workbook (printed)
- 10 envelopes
- The two printable documents:
- Envelope Labels (to paste on each envelope, including the opening requirement) Pegatinas sobres
- Envelope Missions (the mission content to place inside each envelope) Indicaciones sobres
How it works:
- Prepare 10 envelopes and paste each label onto the correct envelope (each label includes when it can be opened). Pegatinas sobres
- Insert the corresponding mission into each envelope. Indicaciones sobres
- Glue the envelopes into the workbook in the designated spaces, and follow the workshop sequence. Cuaderno PAVE Taller 1
This system turns the experience into a family journey over time, where progress is unlocked through real actions, reflection, and shared moments—supporting long-term value education at home.
Thank you to the families who made it possible
We would like to warmly thank all participating families from Colegio Sagrada Familia Jesuitinas (Valladolid) for their enthusiasm and openness. Their engagement is what transforms this project into a real community-building experience—where values are not only discussed, but practiced together.
More workshops will follow as the PAVE project continues its implementation at Colegio Sagrada Familia Jesuitinas de Valladolid.
