Summary
This study looks at whether a new program that adds more physical activity and active play into Danish kindergartens is practical and well-liked by staff. Researchers will work with teachers and leaders to design and test the program over 10 weeks. The goal is to see if the program can be easily used in real kindergartens before testing if it actually improves children's movement and well-being.
