Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Typical Development, Enriched Education ProgramExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Parents of infants with typical development (i.e, not meeting the eligibility criteria for early intervention services in the state of Delaware) will receive enriched play activity education based on key ingredients evidenced to advance infant development.

Group II: Developmental Delay, Enriched Education ProgramExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Parents of infants with/at risk for developmental delay (i.e, meeting the eligibility criteria for early intervention services in the state of Delaware) will receive enriched play activity education based on key ingredients evidenced to advance infant development.

Group III: Developmental Delay, Typical Education ProgramActive Control1 Intervention

Parents of infants with/at risk for developmental delay (i.e, meeting the eligibility criteria for early intervention services in the state of Delaware) will receive typical play education based on usual education found in commonly used websites, apps, and books.

Group IV: Typical Development, Typical Education ProgramActive Control1 Intervention

Parents of infants with typical development (i.e, not meeting the eligibility criteria for early intervention services in the state of Delaware) will receive typical play education based on usual education found in commonly used websites, apps, and books.
