Abstract

Objectives: to understand the daily life of families of boys and girls in pre-school and basic education in a school in the Barranco Amarillo sector, Magallanes and Chilean Antarctic Region; to know the experience of care related to the prevention of childhood obesity and the promotion of the health of their families. Method: qualitative, descriptive-exploratory study, based on the Comprehensive and Daily Sociology of Michel Maffesoli, with the participation of twelve families. Results: families have knowledge about good health, trying to eat healthy, but it is difficult for them to apply them because they do not find an appropriate routine, due to the higher cost of healthy foods, sedentary lifestyle, and the preference for fast foods, among others. Conclusion: it is necessary to establish intervention strategies in the prevention of childhood obesity, focusing on health promotion, for a dignified and healthy life.
