The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how parent training can be used to teach a social skills intervention for their young child with developmental delays. Video modeling is a type of technology based intervention that teaches new skills using videos of someone acting out the behavior. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How well do the parent training procedures teach parents all the steps for using video modeling as a social skills intervention? * Do the children with developmental delays play and communicate more with their parents after the parent uses video modeling as a social skills intervention? Parent participants will be asked to participate in 3 interviews 30 min to 1 hour each, 2 in-home sessions 1 ½ to 2 hours each, 30 min Zoom sessions 2-3 times per week for 2-5 months Child participants will participate in 2 in-home sessions 1 ½ to 2 hours each and 30 min Zoom sessions 2-3 times per week for 2-5 months The time commitment is in ideal conditions, but will be impacted by other participants and parent schedules. The family will be committing to approximately 2-5 hours per week for 2-5 months. Sessions may occur as few as 0 or as many as 5 times per week. The hypothesis is that the parent training will teach parents all the steps to use video modeling intervention in their home with their young child with a disability. The second hypothesis is that the child with a disability will learn new social skills to play and communicate better in their home with their parent after watching the video models.
