Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this observational study is to investigate differences in attained BMI and the proportion of overweight/obesity at school entrance in children who attended kindergartens actively delivering a community-based health promotion and obesity prevention intervention compared to children who attended usual care kindergartens. Further questions it aims to answer are:

* Explore the prevalence of attainted overweight/obesity in children at six years of age, who attended kindergartens delivering intervention compared with usual care kindergartens.
* Explore the development of obesity, overweight and normal weight in children from three-, four- to six years of age, who attended kindergartens delivering intervention.
