This study aimed to characterize the lifestyle of schoolchildren aged 11 to 13 years with and without developmental coordination disorder (DCD). The study included 108 schoolchildren enrolled in a public school in Florianópolis (SC). For motor evaluation was used the Movement Assessment for Children 2; and lifestyle was assessed using the Inventory of Lifestyles in Childhood and Adolescents. The used Statistical tests were chi-square and Fisher exact test, with significance level of p<0.05. We found similar habits in most activities inside and outside home, as well as a significant association between probable DCD and the activity play video game. For sociocultural and sports, participation habits were similar, observing a lower participation of parents of children and adolescents with DCD in these activities.
