A children's sailing and beach program called "Dal Gioco alla Bussola," run through the Lega Navale di Soverato, targets 5- and 6-year-olds as a structured alternative to screen time.0:27 The program frames itself around an "emotional reset" — replacing digital devices with immersive nature-based activity to restore attention capacity and emotional regulation, drawing on attention restoration theory and research on prefrontal cortex myelination through spontaneous play.1:28 Each session maintains a 1-to-5 instructor-to-child ratio.2:38 In the water, children practice marine psychomotricity using surfboards and kayaks, including ducking under boards to challenge balance.3:30 On the sand, they work with loose parts — wood pieces, shells, and stones — to build spatial reasoning and imagination.4:43 A screen-free coding exercise has children arrange shells into logical patterns; an instructor then introduces a deliberate error and children debug it, training working memory and problem-solving.5:20 The stated developmental targets are four executive functions: attention, planning, impulse inhibition, and working memory — framed as preparation for the transition to primary school.3:14 Open Days are announced through the Lega Navale di Soverato's social pages.6:13
