Summary

This study is an 8-week parent-based physical activity intervention focusing on increasing physical activity in preschool-aged children. The participants will be randomized into two groups: control and intervention. During the 8 weeks those in the intervention group will receive weekly newsletters and have weekly phone calls with a physical activity coach. The material in weekly newsletters and focus of the phone calls will be on behavior changes related to physical activity. Parents will be encouraged to complete physical activity alone and with their child. The control group will not have any contact with study staff during the 8-week intervention and continue with normal behaviors. Physical activity levels in the parents and children will be measures before and after the intervention.
