Understanding the factors that shape these behaviors is essential for developing culturally responsive interventions. This Australian qualitative study explored South Asian children\u2019s and mothers\u2019 perceptions of these behaviors and their preferences for child-focused intervention programs.\n                    <jats:italic>\n                      <jats:bold>Methods<\/jats:bold>\n                      :\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    Online interviews were conducted with 10 mother\u2013child dyads (children aged 10\u201312\u00a0y) and 14 additional mothers with children aged 2\u201312\u00a0years.

Key themes related to physical activity included child-related factors (such as interest, perceived benefits), parental role as facilitators and gatekeepers, supportive home environment, role of school and peers, neighborhood environment and opportunities, and cultural norms. Key themes related to sedentary behavior included perceptions about screen use, access to personal digital devices, screen time practices at home, and the role of siblings and peers. Children and mothers preferred an in-person activity-oriented physical activity program, delivered in English by friendly instructors and involving parents, siblings, and school friends. Mothers emphasized tailoring programs by age and providing additional support for girls.\n                    <jats:italic>\n                      <jats:bold>Conclusion<\/jats:bold>\n                      :\n                    <\/jats:italic>\n                    A range of factors shape South Asian children\u2019s physical activity and sedentary behavior.
