Abstract
Twelve Down's syndrome infants participating in an early intervention program were taught specific gross motor and cognitive/adaptive skills. All training was conducted by the child's parents in the home with assistance from a professional parent trainer. Data presented from illustration programs indicate that parent-implemented training procedures appear functionally related to developmental gains made by infants and appear to have resulted in more accelerated development than would be expected without intervention.
