Abstract

The relationship of physical activities and sedentary behavior with cognitive development of preschool children was summarized through literature review and inductive-deductive method.It is found that 180 min of physical activity per day should be accumulated, including 60 min of moderate to vigorous physical activity and 120 min of outdoor activity.A variety of types of physical activity are required, ranging from hobbies and interests to individualized designs and specific games, which should include basic motor skills as well as specialized skill acquisition.To promote better cognitive development in preschool children, the overall daily duration of sedentary behavior should be controlled, the duration of single sedentary behavior should be limited, and the daily use of recreational electronic screens should be reduced.However, sedentary behavior for learning purposes can be encouraged.Currently, these studies are relatively limited in scope, and future recommendations should focus on the combined effects of multiple physical activity and sedentary behavior types on the effect of cognitive development of preschool children so as to provide a more comprehensive scientific basis for preschool education and health.
