摘要:Purpose.One of the factors stimulating child’s development is rationally programmed regular physical activity defined as physical burden,which a person is subject to during everyday work and free time.Activity may be spontaneous or suitably planned and organized,but only comprehensive activity in different areas is a positive measure of health.Restriction of motor activity,employing it in fragmentary,excessively directed forms,causes negative biological effects of both individual and population character and leads to disorders of biosocial balance.Spontaneous hyperactivity of a child constitutes an integral component of not only physical and motor development,but it also influences on psychical and social sphere.The objective of the paper is the analysis of the level of physical activity among 6-years-old children from Poland.Methods.The material of the study contains findings of the research on children accomplishing in pre-school departments of schools and nurseries in randomly chosen institutions in all regions of Poland.The studies of the children were done in 2006 in months September – October.The investigation included 25317 children and their parents from 1364 educational institutions.It has been about 10% of the population of polish children born in the 2000 year.Information about the range of spontaneous and organized physical activity of the researched children was obtained on the basis of author’s questions.They were comprised in a questionnaire for parents and they concerned the organization of motor activities (their intensity & frequency) in a free time.The whole material was verifying and statistically calculated.Results.Data from our studies indicate that physical activity of pre-school children in Poland is under the healthy level.All day long more that 15% children do not move enough for their age.What is really worrying is that almost 80% 6-years-old boys and girls do not participate in any organized physical activity pose schools or nurseries.Conclusions.Supporting children in their activity is very important from the point of view of their future.
