This research aims at gathering current founding data concerning the relationship between the mental health, lifestyle and physical fitness of children, so as to be useful for future research in this field. An analysis of founding data concerning lifestyle produced differences between girls and boys for several items. Also, we found moderate negative correlations for the relationship between mental health and physical fitness in children in Taketomi Ward. In particular, resilience, which is the ability to persevere in times of adversity, produced moderate negative correlations with physical characteristics such as height, weight and BMI, and amounts of physical activity. However, we found no significant correlation for mental health and levels of physical activity. There is a necessity for further analysis to be carried out regarding the factors that produced these results, and for a comparison to be made with urban areas.
