Abstract

In this symposium, a panel will focus on some key issues relating to the promotion of physical activity in early childhood settings. The session will conclude with a discussion involving all presenters. Participants have the chance to ask questions, raise further issues, and to discuss the implications for services and communities. How active is enough? Dr Beth Hands will discuss the implications of the current UK, USA, and draft Australian Guidelines for Physical Activity for young children. What do they mean and how can they be implemented? Measuring success - How do we know which initiatives work? Dr Judy Miller will discuss some key issues related to physical activity and motor development research with young children. ... We expect the symposium to be controversial and we will allow time for dialogue and debate.
