| Abstract | Parents in the urban and rural disadvantaged areas in Korea are generally so low in educational attainment, schooling, and motivation that they lack the knowledge and skills to stimulate and teach their childrenTo address the lack of low-cost day care for children under 4 years of age, a home-based care alternative, involving both parent and child education components, was implemented. The parent educatift program included a wide variety of information about child stimulation and education, organized into a set of 60 eight-page booklets, 12 each for children ages 0-6 months, 7-12 months, 13-18 months, 19-24 months, and 25-36 months. The child education program focused on self-help, numbers, language and communication, social behavior, safety, and activities relevant to their ages. Trained home visitors made a total of 24 evenly spaced visits during a 7-month period, when they handed out the appropriate booklets, explained the contents, and demonstrated the knowledge and skills covered in the booklets. Mothers were preand post-tested. The project started with 162 pairs of mothers and children and concluded with 138 pairs. At the conclusion of the project, there were significant changes in mothers' attitudes toward early education, the physical environment, provision of play materials, variety in daily stimulation, and mothers' emotional and verbal responsiveness.
