RESULTS The questionnaire contained 22 items of physical activity.There were significant differences in participation rates of physical activity among children of different gender,age,residence,caregiver with different educational level and family with different number of children(all P<0.05).Frequency of high intensity physical activity in preschool children per week was 11.2 ± 6.5 times,moderate intensity activity 19.1 ± 12.3 times and low intensity activity 19.3 ± 10.1 times. Frequency of high intensity physical activity and time were related with caregiver's educational level(P<0.05),while frequency of moderate and low intensity physical activity and time were related with children's gender and caregiver's educational level(both P<0.05). Frequency of physical activity was higher and time was longer in girls than those in boys. Children having caregivers with college or higher educational level had higher physical activity frequency and longer activity time,compared with children having caregivers with junior high school or below educational level.
CONCLUSION Physical activities of preschool children are mainly moderate and low intensity.Frequency and time of physical activity are related with children's gender and caregiver's educational level.
