Objective: To assess the trends in nutritional status, lifestyle and eating-habit among pre-school children in metropolis and provincial city of Vietnam, over the period 2009 to 2011. Design: Two cross-sectional studies were conducted. The targeted kindergartens were selected one each from two cites by the city authority. Random sampling was used in both surveys to select the subject. Children's height and weight were measured and classified overweight by WHO Anthro Plus program (version1.0.2.). Children's lifestyle and eating habit data were derived from self-administrated structured questionnaires completed by parents. Subject and setting: Children aged 3 to 5 years, attending kindergartens in urban areas of Ho Chi Minh City(H-kindergarten) and Long Xuyen City(L-kindergarten), Vietnam in 2009(n=254) and 201l(n=215). Result: The prevalence of overweight increased in both kindergartens from 2009 to 2011(H:36.9% to 38.1%, L:17.4 to 29.7%, respectively). The prevalence of sleep after 9 pm, game play and parents wrong recognition of their children's body shape also increased. Conclusion: The increase of overweight was more evident in provincial city than in big city. Since there are few studies on child obesity in provincial city, continuous studies and the nutritional education focused on provincial city are required for prevent child obesity.
