Abstract
Preschool age children born VP had poorer outcomes than FT children within all ICF‐CY domains. Differences in VP and FT children's PA levels emerge in early childhood, which suggests enhanced surveillance and promotion of PA in VP populations is warranted at preschool age. Future research should continue to investigate PA participation in VP populations at preschool age, and should begin to examine potentially modifiable predictors of low PA levels in VP children to identify opportunities for early intervention.
