Bangladesh - Building Parental Capacity to Help Child Development: A Randomized Controlled Trial of the Save the Children Early Childhood Stimulation Program in Bangladesh 2015

Save the Children developed an early stimulation program that delivers actionable messages to mothers and other caregivers that show them how to interact and play with young children.The program also delivers a Child Development Card and two picture books, and instructions on how to use the card and the books to provide children with early learning opportunities.The program is low cost and potentially scalable because it builds on an existing delivery platform, and trains current community health care providers to deliver additional messages on early childhood stimulation practices.
