Ferrero China announced the launch of the 2023 Kinder Joy of moving – Children's League at Century Link Plaza in Shanghai on Aug. 19, despite the summer heat. Ms. Pu Wei, a Chinese women’s footballer, joined the offline event as a guest and played football games with the children, adding more excitement to the event. This year's Kinder Joy of moving campaign introduces seven creative games to unlock a diversified and joyful sporting experience, so that children can immerse themselves in the joy of sports together with their families and friends during this delightfully hot summer and create fantastic childhood memories.
Adhering to the Kinder Joy of moving principle of "Whatever the game, let joy win", the event set up four playing zones with different themes, including "Enjoy the Joyful Moment", "Playing with your Best Friend", "Fun Sport Games" and "Game with your Parents", to correspond with the "4 Fs" elements (Fun, Friendship, Fair Play, Family) that Kinder Joy of moving promotes. The seven creative games are designed to inject vitality into children's life during the summer vacation. Kinder took football, table tennis and basketball, China's three most popular ball games, and added fun to the classic games in creative ways, to promote children's physical fitness and motor coordination. In the games of "Hopscotch" and "Climbing", the children and their parents mobilized all their muscles to push towards the "finish point", fully utilizing their coordination and endurance. In addition, parents' joyful childhood memories are also relived on the sports field. In the "Hoop Rolling" game, parents and children join hands to play the classic folk game and share joy. The "Happy Beat" retro game console allows children to become masters of rhythm. In time with the dynamic music, they tap and light-up buttons, strengthening their concentration, responsiveness and coordination to the "rhythm" of the beat.

Ferrero's Kinder Joy of moving project encourages every child's natural inclination to be active, move and play. It also encourages parents to spend more time with their children and interact with them through play time and sports."
