    Introduction: Physical activity is an integral part of human life. Younger school age is a period in which child’s development is conditioned by their activity. Physical stimulation during this period is important from a medical and psychological perspective. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of sociodemographic factors on the level of physical activity and ways of spending leisure time by 11-year-old children from the district of Rzeszow. Material and methods: The study group consisted of 313 primary school children from the district of Rzeszow, 75 pupils from the city and 238 from rural areas, 164 girls and 149 boys aged 11. The study was conducted by means of a diagnostic survey in a form of a questionnaire prepared by the researchers. Results: In the study group, no significant statistical differences between a place of residence and a number of days devoted to physical activity by children were found. The most common form of activity in their leisure time were classes at the swimming pool and table tennis. The most popular passive form of leisure was watching TV. Statistically significant differences between gender and the amount of time spent at the computer were found. Boys spent more time at the computer than girls. Conclusions: There was no relationship between social environment and the level of physical activity and the way of spending leisure time in the tested children. Boys spent more time on passive forms of recreation. Statistically significant correlation between gender and time spent at the computer was found.
