First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a simple program called MAFF that encourages children to take short movement breaks at school and repeat them at home with their families. Over 12 weeks, 200 children in Portuguese schools will either use MAFF or continue as usual. Researchers will measure if the program reduces sitting time, increases physical activity, and improves wellbeing.
