The aim of this thesis was to gain insight into physical activity partake in preschool children’s free time. For the purpose of research, 89 parents with preschool children participated in my online survey questionnaire. The data has been analysed using Microsoft Excel, presented in tables with the percentage calculated. The results of the research show the examinees’ children spend their free time passively for the most part. Most of the parents stated that their child is not enrolled in any additional program within the preschool, nor outside of it. However, in most cases, the children enrolled in an additional program within or outside of their preschool take part in sporting activities, among which most frequently cited by the parents are football, gymnastics and dance. Sporting activities are mostly practiced two to three times a week, their duration ranges from 45 minutes to two hours. Alarming are the results, according to which these children spend the same amount of their free time in active and passive playtime. More than 50% of the children spend less than 60 minutes of their free time a day playing actively, also more than 30% of the children spend more than an hour sitting down while playing. However, the participants’ children spend most of their free time in the fresh air, and most of the preschools they attend implement physical exercise. A minimum amount of time these children spend using digital content, and nearly all of the examinees, 95,5% of them, consider their children’s free time spent in good quality. According to the obtained results, the generated hypothesis was not confirmed, due to the fact that most of the examinees do not appreciate the importance of physical activity for their child.
