Quality physical education during the preschool years lays a strong foundation for a child's overall development. Recognizing this importance, the present study aims to provide data on the physical condition of 5- to 6-year-old male preschool children in Hanoi, Vietnam. To achieve this objective, the study employed a combination of methods, including document referencing, surveys, pedagogical testing, anthropometric measurements, and statistical analysis. The study involved 1,790 male preschool children aged 5–6 years in Hanoi. The findings indicate that these children show superior physical attributes compared to their peers in Central Vietnam, Dong Thap Province, and Ho Chi Minh City, particularly in terms of standing height, flexibility, and balance ability. However, they demonstrated lower performance in explosive strength of the lower limbs and speed. Additionally, the average Body Mass Index (BMI) of the children falls within the normal range, and their Pignet Index is classified as average.
