Changes in physical activity in pre-schoolers and first-grade children: longitudinal study in the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Background: The transition from kindergarten to first year at school is associated with a variety of psychosocial changes in children. The aim of this longitudinal study was to identify the changes in children´s physical activity (PA) upon entry to firstyear at school; and to identify the days of the school week that exhibit low PA. Methods: We monitored the PA levels of 176 children twice: initially in kindergarten and again in first-year classes at school. The age (mean-standard deviation) of children at kindergarten was 5.7-0.5 years and 6.7-0.5 years at the first year of elementary school. We evaluated PA employing the activity energy expenditure (AEE - kcal/kg/day) from Caltrac accelerometer and daily amount of steps (STEPS) from Yamax pedometer.Participants were monitored over 7 days to include a weekend. Results: The mean AEE was 11.5 in pre-school girls and 12.9 kcal/kg/day in boys; and STEPS were 9923 steps/day in girls and 11 864 in boys on weekdays.At weekends, it was 11.5
