Abstract

The aim of study is to encourage children to participate physical activity (PA) with fun and happy. The study conducted in children for two months, an hour per week (n=60, 29male/31female). The mean data pre intervention: age (4.70 ± 0.82) years old, height (1.07 ± 0.07) m, weight (20.15 ± 6.95), Body Mass Index (BMI) by (16.96 ± 4.12) kg/m2, Force Vital Capacity (FVC) by (0.74 ± 0.26) L, Peak Flow Rate (PFR) by (102.57 ± 35.44) L/min. The result showed significant different between pre and post FSG on FVC (p = .001) and PFR (p = .001). Pre FSG the variables predictor of FVC affected by height, weight, and frequency a midnight cough, exercise frequency. But post FSG, the variable predictor of FVC affected by weight, and frequency of midnight cough. Furthermore, the predictor PFR pre FSG influenced by age, height, weight, asthma history, bedtime, and snore. Post FSG the variables of predictor PFR changed by age, height, and snore. Even though only one times a week for an hour, the FSG program improved FVC and PFR. This evidence can be suggestion program for parents, coach, teacher in kindergarten to encourage children participate in PA.
