Summary

The Third Ward Wellness Study aims to pilot test a wellness program for families with toddler age children. Participants will be recruited from the Third Ward neighborhood in Houston, TX and then randomly assigned to one of two wellness programs. The goal of both programs is to enable and inspire parents to help their toddler age children develop healthy habits that will stay with them through life. Participating families will complete an assessment batter before and after the program. Both programs will meet once per week for 10 weeks.

BEHAVIORAL

FUNPALs Playgroup

Based on Self-Determination Theory, the FUNPALs Playgroup aims to enable and inspire parents to improve their toddlers dietary intake and physical activity habits through authoritative parenting, structured feeding practices, and a healthy home environment. Playgroups will include open but structured experiential learning activities, free play, and instruction/discussion.

BEHAVIORAL

Healthy Toddler Parent Group

The parent class will serve as our instruction only control group. Parents in this class will receive information about nutrition and activity recommendations regarding their toddler age children and will discuss it in a group with other parents. No experiential learning activities, information about parenting, or children will be involved in this class.
