Abstract:
Although a number of studies have been conducted over the past decade on the association between screen time and developmental outcomes in children, most studies mainly deal with the problem of obesity and physical fitness of children, while the studies on the association of screen time and mental health are rare, and there is especially a lack of research concerning internalized problems in children. Early detection of psychological problems is one of the foundations of later successful prevention and treatment, and some research shows that as many as 20% of children, including kindergarten c

Abstract:
Background. Physical fitness in childhood is a marker of health as it reflects the functional status of most the body functions involved in the performance of daily physical activity and/or physical exercise. Measurement and monitoring of these indicators of health beginning from early age is of highest importance. So, the aim of this study is to examine physical fitness in primary school children and test the validity of physical fitness test battery . Methods. A sample of 415 children participated in the study. Physical fitness was measured by the 9-item test battery (Fjørtoft et al., 2011).

This cross-sectional study compared the physical fitness and mental health status of 140 school-age children who participated in sport-specific training with 180 age-matched peers. All the participants were grouped by sport-specific training frequencies in extracurricular time into the following: (i) high sports training frequency group (HFG): training three to five times per week (n = 77, mean [SD] age: 9.60 [0.12] years); (ii) low sports training frequency group (LFG): training once per week (n = 63, mean [SD] age: 9.88 [0.14] years); and (iii) control group (CG): maintaining routine life (n

Abstract:
The obesity epidemic and the decline of fitness among children highlights the need for suitable interventions designed to promote Physical Activity (PA) and healthy habits. The purpose of our pilot study was to assess the feasibility of a school-based program among overweight and obese children, by examining changes in their body composition, PA, physical fitness, and some psychosocial determinants of active behavior. An additional objective was to investigate the reciprocal relationship over time between PA and body image. Self-reported PA and health-related fitness tests were administered to

Abstract:
Despite the health-related implications of normal-weight obesity in children, very little research has explored the fundamental associations between this status and important long-term health parameters. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to investigate the physical fitness of children with normal-weight obesity, in comparison to normal-weight non obese and overweight and obese counterparts. A total of 328 middle-school-aged children (9.8 ± 0.5 y) took part in this study (n = 44 normal-weight obese; n = 237; normal-weight non obese; n = 47 overweight and obese). Height, weight, and bo

Abstract:
A growing body of literature has confirmed the health benefits of regular physical activity in school-aged youth. However, less systematic attention has been directed toward establishing activity profiles and evaluating the impact of community-based interventions designed to increase physical activity and reduce sedentary behavior in preschool children. In this paper, current findings are reviewed to determine whether preschoolers are achieving sufficient levels of structured and unstructured physical activity and to identify potential correlates of activity and sedentary behavior in the young

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the study of the influence of water aerobics on the indicators of physical development and functional state of children aged 7–8 years. It is no secret that the main form of organization of physical education at school is a physical education lesson. Is it possible to meet the motor needs of children of primary school age and ensure the achievement of the necessary level of development of basic skills and abilities that are so necessary for solving specific motor tasks under various conditions of practical activity? The answer is obvious-no. It is worth turning to add
