To explore participation in real-life activities during early childhood, compare children’s participation based on motor function and investigate relationships between participation and parental empowerment. Data derived from the Cerebral Palsy Follow-up Program (CPOP) in Norway and the research registry Habilitation Trajectories, Interventions, and Services for Young Children with CP (CPHAB). Fifty-six children (12–56 months, GMFCS levels I–IV, MACS levels I–V) and their families were included. Frequency and enjoyment of participation were assessed by the Child Engagement in Daily Life Questionnaire and parental empowerment in family and service situations by the Family Empowerment Scale at least twice during the preschool years. Differences between groups based on motor function were explored by the Kruskal–Wallis tests. A linear mixed model was conducted to explore relationships between child participation and parental empowerment. Similarities and differences in participation between children at different motor function levels varied between the activities explored. Fluctuations in frequency and stable enjoyment scores over time were most common. A statistically significant relationship was revealed between child participation and parental empowerment in family situations, but not in service situations. Child participation appears as context-dependent and complexly influenced by both motor function and parental empowerment. This supports a focus on transactional processes when exploring and promoting child participation.Implications for RehabilitationFamily and recreational activities represent real-life contexts providing opportunities for interactions and experiences supporting development and learning.Children with CP appreciate a wide range of activities in the home and community, which emphasizes the importance of providing opportunities for such participation in order to fulfill their desires and interests.Child participation appears as complexly influenced by the unique activity setting, motor function and characteristics of the family environment, requiring attention to transactional processes when aiming to explore and promote participation.
