Children today spend many hours sitting at school and at home, often in front of screens. Prolonged sitting in childhood increases the risk of future health problems such as diabetes, heart disease and poor mental wellbeing. MAFF is a simple school-to-home programme that teaches short, practical movement breaks in the classroom and encourages families to repeat them together at home through structured weekly challenges. Over 12 weeks, we will compare classes using MAFF with classes continuing as usual to assess whether children sit less, move more and improve their wellbeing. If effective, MAFF will provide schools and communities with an easy-to-implement toolkit to promote healthier and more active families.

The goal of this study is to pilot test features of a new smartphone app and to gather feedback related to wearing a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) and a Fitbit device, as well as to obtain input on health behavior-focused messages delivered through the app. The study will enroll English-speaking participants aged 16-24 years who were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes before age 18. Participants will be asked to fill out surveys about diabetes, physical activity, and diet before and after wearing a CGM for 30 days. At the end of wearing the CGM, participants will complete an interview about their experience.
