N and percentages presented for completed responses only. Energetic play is the sum of walking, running, and moderate-vigorous activities and games. Total physical activity is the sum of light intensity activities and games and energetic play
¹ Met guideline if child obtained ≥ 180 min of total physical activity and ≥ 60 min of energetic play if aged 3–5 years. Must have valid age recorded to be included in denominator. Derived from accelerometry
² Met guideline if child had < 1 h of parent-reported screen time per day
³ Met guideline if child was 2 years old and had 11–14 h of parent-reported sleep/day or child was 3–5 years old and had 10–13 h of parent-reported sleep/day
