This quasi-experimental design study was conducted to examine the effect of the Science Activities Education Program for Parents (SAEPP) on parents' ability to create opportunities for their children to develop basic scientific process skills at home. The study group consisted of 108 parents (54 experimental, 54 control) whose children attended two different municipal preschools in Izmir. The 'Scale for Level of Using Basic Scientific Process Skills: Parent Form' (SLUBSPSPF) was used to collect data for the study. Findings: There was a statistically significant difference between the pretest-posttest mean scores of SLUBSPSPF regarding the experimental group. The posttest scores show that SAEPP provides a significant increase in the situation of parents creating opportunities for their children to use basic scientific process skills (BSPS). In addition, when the Parent Form posttest and follow-up test mean scores were compared, it showed that there was no significant difference and that the education provided (SAEPP) had a permanent effect (p > 0.05).
