2. Does your child have any medical sleep problems, such as night terrors? | No concerns | No amendments made |
3. Is your child currently suffering from an illness that may affect their normal behaviours, including being active, movement, sitting or sleep? | Question appearing as though it is only aimed at long term illness, rather than just being unwell during the week of measurement | Changed to include more example so that even short-term illnesses are captured. ‘Is your child currently suffering from an illness, unwell or poorly (short or long term) that may affect their normal behaviours, including being active, movement, sitting or sleep?’ |

4b. Did any of these activities make your child ‘huff and puff’ or breathe harder? (Please circle) | Parents did not always feel their child would be out of breath or ‘huffing and puffing’, but that a range of activities would suggest this intensity of activity. | Added more examples of higher intensity activity, including makes child breathless, hot and sweaty, or need a drink or rest |
