Summary

This study looks at whether doing adapted physical activity every day can improve sleep quality in children aged 5 to 16 who are being treated for blood cancer. About 30 children will take part, with some exercising daily and others just once over four days. Parents will track sleep and quality of life, and kids will wear devices to measure sleep and activity.
