A descriptive survey research design was employed for the study. The components measures were height, heart rate, Body Mass Index (BMI), and Blood pressure of the children after getting consent from parents. The population for the study comprised preschool children between 3-5. The sample of the study consisted of 133 preschool children who were purposely selected using a multistage sampling technique. The procedure and methods used for the study were approved by the Departmental Postgraduate Committee before experimenting The research instruments for the study included the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (iPAQ) and other calibrated instruments were used for data collection. Data from the study conducted was analyzed using the descriptive survey design of mean with graphical illustration while the hypotheses were tested using a correlation coefficient at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings indicated that there was a negative significant relationship between the physical activity levels and screen time usage of preschool children; a positive significant relationship between sedentary behavior and screen time usage of preschool children and a negative significant relationship between sleep pattern and screen time usage of preschool children. The findings of this study can contribute to the formulation of public health guidelines and recommendations aimed at promoting the optimal physical and mental development of preschool children. This information can be used by health practitioners, educators, policymakers, and parents to create strategies that encourage a balanced lifestyle that includes both physical activity and controlled screen time.
