Using a survey, we assessed four health habits in 468 pediatric cancer survivors. Approximately 75% were at goal for ≥1 behavior-44% were active ≥1 hr per day, 40% engaged in ≤1 hr of screen time a day, 34% consumed sweetened beverages not often, and 4% ate >4 servings of fruits and vegetables per day. Survivors' age was associated with being active (P < 0.001) and limited screen time (P = 0.001). Males were more likely to be active (P = 0.003). The most common combination of goal behaviors was activity and screen time. Encouraging healthy behaviors may decrease the burden of late effects in survivors.
