About the study
Health inequalities, social isolation, and family adversity impact a child's development. Play is the context for child development in all areas. A parent's ability to support children at play while being playful contributes to their psychological adjustment. The proposed tier 1, strengths-based educational program for parents of children aged 2 to 5 years with and without disabilities combines elements of a play-based approach and tips on effective parenting to support children's development by equipping parents with knowledge and empowering them to become change agents in their children's lives.
