Summary
This study looks at how to improve a parenting program for malnourished children aged 6-24 months in Bangladesh. Researchers are testing two approaches: one using program-supplied toys and another where mothers make toys. The goal is to see if these strategies improve children's thinking, language, and motor skills. About 2,400 children will take part over 6 months.
