The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of an innovative approach to increase the amount of vegetable's (V) intake consumed by preschool children who are predominately African-American (AA) and Hispanic-American (HA).
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of an innovative approach to increase the amount of vegetable's (V) intake consumed by preschool children who are predominately African-American (AA) and Hispanic-American (HA).The primary endpoint will be changes in V consumption in high school children with the hypothesis that a puppet intervention will increase their V consumption by preschool children. To achieve the project goal, our specific aims (SA) are to: SA1: Successfully recruit 6 preschool (PS) centers and 168 AA and 168 HA children 3 to 5 y enrolled there. SA2: Conduct individual interviews for formative assessment of the PUPPET shows. SA3: Develop the manual of operation and intervention protocols SA4: Develop 4 videotaped theatre-based PUPPET shows that are developmentally and cognitively appropriate for use with 3- to 5-year-old AA and HA children SA5: Pilot-test the feasibility of the PUPPET intervention with 3 intervention and 3 control HS centers. SA6: Use the data collected in Aim 5 to estimate parameters required to conduct a group randomized trial for an evaluation of the efficacy of the intervention. The primary hypothesis (H1) to be tested is that children who receive the PUPPET intervention will demonstrate increased V consumption in HS compared to children in the control group.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| AA - Increase vegetable intake | Experimental | 60 African-American (AA) preschool children will participate in the Intervention Group. 60 AA children will belong to the Control Group. 6-week Intervention: 120 AA and HA children will be shown the Puppet Shows and will be given a bag of ingredients to prepare the vegetable highlighted that week in the Puppet Show. The 6 week intervention includes a baseline assessment (1 week), followed by the intervention (4 weeks), and post assessment (1 week). The primary hypothesis to be tested is children who receive the PUPPET intervention with a parent/teacher component will demonstrate "increase vegetable intake in pre-school children". |

| HA - Increase vegetable intake | Experimental | 60 Hispanic-American (HA) preschool children will participate in the Intervention Group. 60 HA children will belong to the Control Group. 6-week Intervention: 120 AA and HA children will be shown the Puppet Shows and will be given a bag of ingredients to prepare the vegetable highlighted that week in the Puppet Show.

| Increase vegetable intake in pre-school children | Behavioral | 6-week Intervention: 120 AA and HA children will be shown the Puppet Shows and will be given a bag of ingredients to prepare the vegetable highlighted that week in the Puppet Show. The 6 week intervention includes a baseline assessment (1 week), followed by the intervention (4 weeks), and post assessment (1 week). The primary hypothesis to be tested is children who receive the PUPPET intervention with a parent/teacher component will demonstrate "increase vegetable intake in pre-school children". |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Vegetable Intake in Preschool Children | There will be 2 phases to program development: diagnostic and formative. The diagnostic phase will consist of 20 individual interviews with child-care providers and parents (½ AA, ½ HA) and 20 interviews with preschool children (½ AA, ½ HA).In addition the parents will be asked to complete the Cooking Confidence Questionnaire, the Barriers and Facilitators Questionnaire on Vegetables and a list of their child's favorite vegetables before coming to the interview. Implementation will include the showing of the 4 video-taped puppet shows to 10-12 children immediately prior to the lunch meal on 4 consecutive days. These children will be assessed at lunch using the digital diet estimation method. | 1 year 11 months |
