BACKGROUND
Little is known about physical activity (PA) in young children and about the relationship between their PA and that of their parents.
OBJECTIVE
The main purpose of the present study (Y-Be-Active) was to examine the daily PA levels of young children and their parents, and to explore the relationship between children's and parents' PA.
METHOD
Fifty-four children (mean age 4.3 years) and their parents (54 mothers, mean age 35.8 years; 50 fathers, mean age 38.2 years) wore accelerometers for three weekdays and two weekend days. Parents also completed questionnaires on family sociodemographics and PA habits.
RESULTS
Children spent most of their time in light PA. Almost all children attained 30 min of daily moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA), and most boys and girls attained 60 min of daily MVPA on weekdays. Only 60% of fathers and approximately one-half of mothers attained 30 min of daily MVPA on weekdays and weekend days. Children's and fathers' PA were correlated on weekends. Few parents (20% to 30%) participated regularly in organised PA with their child. Fathers' involvement in PA with their children was associated with higher MVPA in children.
CONCLUSIONS
Many young children and parents did not meet current Canadian recommendations for daily PA. Parental involvement in PA with their young children, particularly the involvement of fathers, appeared to promote higher levels of MVPA in young children.

OBJECTIVE
The main purpose of the present study (Y-Be-Active) was to examine the daily PA levels of young children and their parents, and to explore the relationship between children’s and parents’ PA.
METHOD
Fifty-four children (mean age 4.3 years) and their parents (54 mothers, mean age 35.8 years; 50 fathers, mean age 38.2 years) wore accelerometers for three weekdays and two weekend days. Parents also completed questionnaires on family sociodemographics and PA habits.

Many young children and parents did not meet current Canadian recommendations for daily PA. Parental involvement in PA with their young children, particularly the involvement of fathers, appeared to promote higher levels of MVPA in young children.
背景
对于幼儿的身体活动（PA）以及他们的身体活动与父母身体活动之间的关系，我们了解甚少。
目的
本研究（Y-Be-Active）的主要目的是检测幼儿及其父母的每日身体活动水平，并探究儿童与父母身体活动之间的关系。
方法
54名儿童（平均年龄4.3岁）及其父母（54名母亲，平均年龄35.8岁；50名父亲，平均年龄38.2岁）在三个工作日和两个周末日佩戴加速度计。父母还完成了关于家庭社会人口统计学和身体活动习惯的问卷调查。
结果
儿童大部分时间处于轻度身体活动状态。几乎所有儿童每日都能达到30分钟的中度至剧烈身体活动（MVPA），并且大多数男孩和女孩在工作日能达到每日60分钟的MVPA。在工作日和周末日，只有60%的父亲和大约一半的母亲能达到每日30分钟的MVPA。儿童与父亲的身体活动在周末具有相关性。很少有父母（20%至30%）定期与孩子一起参加有组织的身体活动。父亲参与和孩子一起进行身体活动与孩子更高水平的MVPA相关。
结论
许多幼儿和父母未达到加拿大当前关于每日身体活动的建议。父母参与和幼儿一起进行身体活动，特别是父亲的参与，似乎能促进幼儿达到更高水平的MVPA。
