The Incredible Years (IY) is a set of teacher, child and parent programs designed to promote children’s social, emotional and academic competence including prevention and reduction of behavior problems in children ages 3-12. The IY Classroom Curriculum + Parent Training Program, as represented in the accepted research, combined a classroom child training curriculum (the Dinosaur Social Skills Program) with a parent program for students targeted due to conduct problems. The Dinosaur Social Skills classroom program focused on classroom management strategies, pro-social behavior, and reducing conduct disorders, presented in 60 class lessons over 2 years (K-1). The parent program provided weekly sessions for parents focused on ways they could improve their children’s social behavior and academic competence.

The current Basic Parent Curriculum, available in different versions based on age of child, consists of weekly 2-hour parent groups covering topics such as social, emotional, academic and persistence coaching, child-directed play, praise and incentives, effective limit setting, proactive discipline and problem solving. Themes throughout the parent program include building supportive social networks, emotional regulation and working collaboratively with teachers. Teaching methods for parents include goal setting and using video vignettes to trigger problem solving and practices. Parents are given home activities to read and practice weekly and set short term goals. The treatment version of the program is a minimum of 18-20 weeks and the prevention version is minimum of 14 weeks.

Circle time lessons are generally 20-30 minutes and are followed by small group activities designed to practice the skills being taught. Teachers are encouraged to enhance this learning by reinforcing use of social and emotional skills taught throughout the school day and during recess and meal times.

Note: There is also a treatment version of this program where students meet in small groups of no more than 6 children, weekly for 2 hours for a minimum of 18 weeks, ideally while their parents are in the parent 2-hour groups. A model exists for offering this small group treatment approach in schools twice weekly for 1 hour.
