简要总结
The purpose of this study is to learn whether a combination of two research-proven programs, a responsive caregiving parenting program and a childhood obesity prevention program, will have an effect on toddlers' healthy nutrition and physical activity behaviors. Investigators hypothesize that the children participating in the intervention will have significantly lower BMI z-scores, lower intake of sugar sweetened beverages, and increased number of servings of fruits and vegetables, and minutes of physical activity.

研究组 & 干预措施
ENRICH
The intervention will integrate the Play and Learning Strategies (PALS) program, a 10-week home-based parent-centered curriculum designed to facilitate parents' mastery of skills for interacting with their toddler with Coordinated Approach To Child Health (CATCH), a behaviorally-based school health promotion program based on Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) to increase opportunities for healthy eating and activity.
干预措施: ENRICH (Behavioral)
Control - monthly handouts
The control group receives monthly handouts (one per month) for 3 months that provides information on various topics including child cognitive and language development and child behaviors as it pertains to 2 and 3 year old children.
