Answer:

Children develop eating habits and physical activity patterns at there preschool age which is typically between 2 to 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Children are very fragile as they grow up and they make/develop most habits and physical activity patterns from what their caregivers or parents do on a regular basis.

At preschool stage of their life they are able to develop good eating habits and develop physical activity patterns which they will model in respect to their caregivers eating and physical activity patterns. as they grow up they will always modify their eating habits and physical activity patterns to fit in to there body system. more physically active children tend to have more robust eating habits.
