The PALS training is designed to give early care providers a solid knowledge base of best practices for physical activity with emphasis on healthy lifestyles, environments, and bodies. The PALS content addresses physical activity for children birth through age five years, and how to implement physical activities in their programs and share with families. The goal of PALS is to support practice and policy changes in ECE programs. PALS combines content learning with self-assessments, policy development opportunities, resources, and materials to support practice change in ECE programs, leading to healthier, more active children.
