Summary

Primary child healthcare in Sweden is an important arena for health promotion interventions as nurses regularly meet parents and children from birth to five years of age. To date there is a lack of evidence-based material for child healthcare nurses to use in health promotion talks within primary child healthcare. Therefore, the aims of this study are to: (i) evaluate the effectiveness of Saga Stories in health talks on parental self-efficacy to promote healthy diet, physical activity, and screen time behaviours in 5-year-old children and (ii) evaluate the implementation of Saga Stories in health talks with regards to acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity, adoption, sustainability, satisfaction, and usage.

Saga Stories

Saga Stories in health talks consists of material for child healthcare nurses to use to facilitate the health talk with both the child and parent(s) and is complemented with take-home material. Every nurse will receive a large flip-chart with colourful pictures and text to facilitate their health talk at the 5-year check-up. The flip-chart will include information and questions regarding food, physical activity and sedentary behaviour, sleep, dental health, as well as bathroom habits. At the conclusion of the check-up the children will receive the book 'Saga Stories: Your amazing body and brain´ as well as games for the child to take home to promote healthy lifestyle behaviours (fruit and vegetable bingo and a physical activity fortune teller).
