Reports the results of an intensive 2-year home-based educational program for 4-6 year old Turkish minority children in the Netherlands. Mothers who worked with their children at home carried out the structured program in Turkish. Overall, results indicate that involving parents in their children's education through a structured home-based educational program may add to the effects of preschool education. (Author/VWL)
